Top is the protech body, bottom is the protector body from what I remember. Top has undyed hardware bottom has the hardware that was dyed yellow by a previous owner.

Hello, my name is Cameron. I posted the following on Ripper7Racing; acerpower sent me here for help. This is my first experience with non-Tamiya vintage stuff (I've spent a ton of time on tamiyaclub.com drooling over Shodog's showroom). I currently...

Part IV: Electronics
With the threat of finals week looming overhead, I didn’t get much done this past weekend as I would’ve liked, but I guess I’m keeping a fairly constant snail-esque pace. I wasn’t expecting any new parts this week, and I...
I've been out of the hobby since the 90s. I picked a pretty decent RC10 CE that I want to restore and upgrade a little. I think I found all the stealth transmission parts but I can't track down the original stealth transmission slipper...

You're right it is pretty hard to find just about anything but brushes and bearing for old motors. Someone could steam off some old labels, touch 'em up in Photoshop and reprint them. There's no reason you couldn't do those yourself if you've got a...
I got hold of an original RC10 Worlds (EUR 50, quite the bargain). I'm still torn between making it a shelf queen and building a runner for occasional low-traction track outings with a 13.5 T. Perhaps you could answer some of the questions below....

2. You'll have to make the call on the o rings. They could be a few years old (re-re) or 30+ years old. If they feel okay, I'd probably...
