Craigslist score! Late Black Stealth RC10CE

[Mattesch]

So, with my re-ignited passion for RC10s, I have been keeping track of Craigslist. I just missed out on an early Edinger... But, I did have a good pickup recently on a truly UNUSED Late Black Stealth RC10CE. This thing should be in a museum! I was up until 2am rebuilding it Check out the pics!






















The only reason this thing wasn't used at all, is because they couldn't follow instructions. Both a good and bad thing, I guess... Anyway, a pretty good score, I think!

looks like the new owner couldn't follow them either.

rear arm mounts, got them on the wrong sides.

LOL - ha ha ha... I will need to fix that. Seriously, this is how bad it was... You know those plastic "tags", used to mold the plastic pieces? Those were used as the front hinge pins! The Diff didn't work at all... No balls installed. Still trying to fix

i've seen those plastic rods from the front arms used as hinge pins already, too.

that was my first pro deck back in the day. still got it too. unfortunately, the deck doubled as a poor boy's snowboard in the winter time.

Nice find! I've got a similar car, also unused, also badly assembled, that I got in a lot a couple years ago. Not quite as clean as yours, couple minor scratches on the tub from being thrown in a box with another car. I'm missing the body and wing, and mine came with a DS Spec motor instead of the Mach 1.

If you don't mind my asking, how much did you pay for it?

I paid $250 for everything, including a new Airtronics radio. Probably overpaid.

Not sure what the big secret is?

This has been posted in the 25 Year thread for quite a while now:


"The Late Black Stealth RC10CE

This was the very last production of the gold pan and was made even during the RC10B2 production run! The late CE has a C stamp chassis. It shared many upgraded parts from the Worlds Car and even the T2 and B2.
Worlds car parts included the rear arms, new short eared rear bulkhead, stronger black impregnated composite plastic front arms. New black plastic all around on the very late CE. T2/B2 shock collars, upper and lower spring retainers, updated RCPS style turnbuckles. This version could also be found with a mix of white and black parts and even the Viper body instead of the Protech II. "

Ok now I "understand" the avitar...


I had one of these black CEs last year, I put RC carbon works shock towers on it as it didn't have towers when I got it. It looked sharp and did pretty well on ebay as a roller. I think it's in my rescue thread in the Gallery.

, it's still one of my favorite versions
