Hey Everyone,

So I came across this gold pan, mostly complete. I think its a Worlds Car but not sure.

1. Just about ALL the plastic parts are black… I thought these cars had mainly white plastic parts.

2. Is this transmission a stealth?

It came with a box of parts and receipts from 2001… only bad thing is it ALL smells like smoke BAD. Kinda cool I got the box and info book.

What model does the box say it is? Just curious. Yes, that is a stealth transmission.

Definitely not a Worlds car. Looks like a CE with dyed nylon parts.
Anyway, it should clean up nicely.
Also, they have the rear arm mounts reversed.

EDIT: Oops, apparently the late CE's came with black plastics and shock caps. Read all about it here:

Real nice find, I’ve got a soft spot for the late all black parts cars. That one looks to still be wearing its original tires as well. Very cool 8)

Yep the last gold tubs were C stamped.
Btw if you don’t want all your pics to post sideways just rotate your phone sideways when you take the pics.

Thanks for all the replies everyone. So looks like its a CE late model with a stealth transmission.

Yes looks like orginal tires! They still have that center flashing down the rubber, front are proline made in the USA!
