Found front and rear assemblies for RC10T, build it?

Post by bobotech »

I found a front and rear end assembly in a box of random rc stuff I forgot about.

It consists of the front end complete except for one missing A arm and a complete rear end complete with period Futaba ESC and matching motor.

I also have what looks like the original wheels and tires.

But no chassis. Should I consider acquiring a chassis and body and building it up or just parting out?

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

But where to source the missing parts?

I need one a arm for the front and the chassis and the battery holder. I think I have everything else.

I was there. I searched for "rc10t chassis" and didn't find a single rc10t chassis. I am looking specifically for the first gen rc10t chassis, I don't think any of the newer gen chassis have the same mounting points plus all my components are white like the first gen.

Just search for RC10 chassis. The cars and trucks used the same pan. Any of the black pans should have the correct holes.
