Hi everyone
, I have added this Associated history piece to my collection and would like some clarification from you.
Which model exactly is it?
Which year?
In your experience, are they all original parts?
Overall, do you consider it a nice model to collect? I would like your opinion.
Thank you so much guys.

Hi, so it's an RC10 Graphite (1st gen) introduced in 1989, it looks like all of the parts are original. The only thing that is not original is the two holes in the nose, these have been added.
They are collectable & yours looks to be in good condition.
You can check the history of all of the RC10's here:

That is a nice model to collect. The chassis is nice with minimal scratches. As well the shock don't have worn spots from driving. The kit looks clean and well assembled with no obviously broken pieces. It's a nice find.

Thank you very much for your opinions.
I wanted to ask you what body to put on this model, I mean what research I need to do to find a body to paint that can be adapted to him, even something modern reprinted for him.
I write from Italy and it is not easy to find it here.

As your car is the 6 gear, the correct body for that version is a Protech II. They are available as reproduction, here's one in the UK...
