RC10 Fiberglass Chassis?

Anyone recognize this? Believe this to be some sort of fiberglass RC10 chassis. All existing chassis holes line up with original gold pan (no stealth holes). Thinking this may have been some type of early on road chassis as it doesn’t seem quite rigid enough to be a buggy platform (it’s thinner than the RC10 graphite chassis). But, it doesn’t look like any on road Associated chassis that I’ve ever seen.

I would say it's home made

Maybe home made or some sort of early dirt oval chassis

I couldn't find a pic of one, but I'm thinking RCH made that.

I guarantee you are right, now I remember that as an RCH. There should also be some sort of tube setup to stiffen it front to back if I remember.

Thanks for the replies on this. Definitely needs something to increase rigidity but I only have the part shown. Was thinking of modding this into some sort of double deck chassis to increase stiffness but didn't want to hack it up if it was something super rare/desirable.

The stiffeners you are talking about were not for the RC10. They were for the highly modified Tamiya Sand Scorcher. RCH didn’t do much of anything for the RC10. I ran an all graphite RC10 with the new at the time modular alum end bell Checkpoint motor. It was so light and had so much power it took time for us to get it to go straight in the straight always…the torque was unbelievable and had to gear it way down.
