RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

i've wanted a rc10 since i was a kid and now that im 28 i finally got one. a guy that i work with had a couple rc's that someone left at his place and time to get rid of them. well im the new owner of a traxxas sledgehammer and a rc10 that needs to be identified. both for free and both rip.

try again

and another

a free worlds car?

boy, ya gotta love that.

worlds car? whats that? is it a origanal buggy? if so whats the difference between it and a gold pan?

not an expert and neglecting the fine art of gradual eveolution, but the first things that jump to mind; better longer shocks, larger diameter wheels and fitting rubber, stealth transmission, graphite shocktowers, wide front arms, universal-joints...
absolutely good deal . RUN IT!

read this article. it talks about the 4 main rc10's of that era.

1. what was the price difference back then 2. any idea on year 3.is it worth restoring to drive or hot rod it 4. does it look all origanial 5. is it from the same era as the gold pan thanks all

1. This was the most expensive one at the time.
2. 1994-95 onwards.
3. Depends on the condition of the tub base. It looks in great condition. If the base is similar, restore and shelve. If it's very used, do as you wish.
4. Yes.
5. The gold pan came out in 1984. This has ten years of evolution.

Basically I am sure someone will swap you for whatever you want in similar condition (or ebay it and buy what you want)...

Welcome to the board.

just noticed: is it just my impression or is this one of the lightened tubs: looks like it was milled before anodising.
That'd make it pretty desired , I think.
(should stay away from rc10 threads, sorry)

Erik, All Worlds chassis tubs are done that way.

I wasn't going to shout but

A WORLDS CAR FOR FREE

OH COME ON

Welcome to the board you are officially the luckiest member now go stand in the corner with purpletimbo

looks like they ran oval with it or something the shocks are mounted in on one side out on the other

thank you all for helping me out. and i didnt even notice the shocks. now one last question, if i do run it and break something what do i order the parts as going on? also some people say shelve it but when i was a kid i wanted one very bad but couldnt find the cash. well im not giong to bash it but it will be driven on the road when im done cleaning it up. thanks again

If you don't really care of the vintage, if you post it on ebay you could probably get a few of the original RC10s for even money. You could then shelve one, beat one up, and use the third for parts.
