The Official "What is it?" Thread

[badhoopty]

I have an unknown chassis. RC10Resto didn't know, lol, so I came here. It has extra holes where the tranny mounts and what look like yellow dotted lines on the chassis?

scr8p asked me about this, happy to provide what i know, which wasnt much until this january when a member named Rubbaneck pm'd me about a now deleted post. lucky he saw the post in time! its nice to have a little info!

heres my original post after i got the first one off ebay:

Subject: cool little rc10 i just sniped
i emailed the seller, asking him who made the chassis, here's his reply,

"It was a colorado based company that made them during the early 90's. The company was Brian Geesy & Co. He sold several chassis at National events and many locally. It is one of a kind. Thanks for your purchase and enjoy!"

does that name ring a bell with any of you guys?

heres Rubbanecks pm after he saw my post:

I was just lurking and found this post. I'm a longtime offroader and used to run for Brian Gisi that made that chassis. He also had a Losi version for the XX line.

I'll get some more pics of mine and post them up soon.

i dunno if he ever posted pics or is even active on the board. i'm a born again newbie here.

i got 2 of them btw, here they are. its a double decker but it shouldnt be hard at all to replicate.




biggest res i got if you want details.

I like the front tower on that second car....is it something you made or did you get it with the car?

[Phin]

How many of the numbered hubs can you identify?

Black ones on top I hope are HPI.

the second all black car is pretty much exactly as i got it off ebay besides tearing it down and givibg it a rebuild. the front tower def looks homebrewed. i remember the entire car was spraypainted black and looked absolutely thrashed in the ebay pictures. it cleaned up nice.

Thanks for the info hoopty. Homemade or not, it's a nice chassis. I currently have no use for it, so to b/s/t it will go.

Here are a couple of chassis I need some help with ID..

The first one I just picked up off of fleabay. I am guessing is a Trinity something or other. Has an interesting floating rear pod and came with a Tecnacraft rear spoiler to boot!
The other I have no idea.... Both are in need of a good cleaning!

[scr8p]

the first one is a trc lynx elite ss lto. the second...... i think it's a delta villan. i think.
