Recently acquired this Edinger from E bay, any ideas ? I kinda want to find a radio and battery pack and keep it as period correct as possible.

Welcome to the boards. Nice RC10 but looks more like a Cadillac rather than an Edinger. What's the address on the motor label?
If you post the model of the servos I'm sure someone could tell you the matching receiver and radio for them.

Good looking car.
I don't see cups on the rear shocks, looks a lot like my Cadillac.

cups and bellcranks only make an early edinger- this could be a mid or late eddy... I havent done the math

Lower cups on shocks do not have a split, Motor says Edinger address.

Are tires marked "Team Associated" on the sidewalls?

Hmm. Some parts might have gotten replaced with Caddy parts. Tires and rear wheel knock-offs don't belong to an Edinger but the gear cover does.
What RC10resto asked and also do the steering servo savers have a hump around the center link mounting holes?

The tires do not say Team Associated, and I put the knockoffs on it.

Branded tires are Cadillac tires but that clear gear cover is an early to mid Edinger part.
I'm probably sounding like a nitpicking elitist. Sorry if I do.

You've got a nice RC10 left just the way it is. If you feel like taking on a project though there's some Caddy parts on the car that need Edinger replacements. Or a few Edinger parts that need to be replaced with Caddy parts.

A Late Edinger (generally) is the same as an Early Cadillac except for the Motor Label and Box address.
And the over used "Edinger" description only
really makes a difference when it is Early or Mid

Nice car either way, looks like it's in great condition.
