Toying with the idea of selling my vintage RC10, but I'm not entirely sure what it worth so wondering if anyone has an idea? Its got a few decent parts, overview of the spec:

Worlds black milled chassis
worlds black wishbones
Fully ballraced in worlds steering
Fibrelyte worlds towers (front with brace)
Fibrelyte battery and tranmission brace
MIP CVD's
Stealth tranny (gold motor plate)
Teflon assoc rear shocks, and gold fronts.

Any help appreciated!:thumbsup:

Sounds like a nice piece of kit. Pics would be cool. I guess thats just for my benifit cause I love the oldies. Hard to say on value, worlds stuff always good.If its good prob in the 80-90 pound range. Im no expert though!

Tough to say really, prices are all over the place and seem to have been for a while. I bought and sold one recently to pretty much the same spec and I gave £85 for it. It didn't have the CVD's though, you can get them from Towerhobbies for around £12.50 depending on the exchange rate (got some at the same time when it was $1.60 to the pound).

The problem is that is made out of different cars, different shocks front and rear, worlds chassis but gold motorplate. So collectors will only take it for parts if the car is in good condition.

Otherwise you need someone who wants a runner, or vintage class racer. But they wont pay much more than 75 quid, since there still a good number of decent runners about.

Reckon for £80 it will probs be worth keeping hold as the cars stands me at more then that. I'll try and chuck some pics up tonight.

new black motor plates and teflon shock bodies are still available from the states, better to keep it and wait for the correct parts to come up on ebay.

If selling I would be interested. I have just placed a wanted ad for one.

I have the shock bodies, just need the seals etc to build, but struggled to get hold of a motor plate. Tjf cheers for the interest I'll let you know if I decide to sell.

Couple of pics as requested:
