Yeah we figured that out. Drives great! So much fun.

Got it cleaned up.

I'm just super jealous because I had to piece together my vintage worlds car (does it even count if it was pieced together?). Hillary got hers handed to her complete, intact, running, and with some really cool bits. :mrgreen: So since we are pretty into the thing now.. is it really that special? I'...

that's really cool - sorry for having jumped on you earlier on... as said, common pattern, and rarely from "good" people :) your son is lucky it seems. That car has Lunsford Punishers on it too (the metal links that hold the suspension and steering bits together), which is pretty cool (an...

I think the most important thing that people get confused is that rare does not mean valuable. Yes, the all black Worlds cars were the last and not as plentiful- but black parts is not an advantage, it’s quite the opposite. White parts are the ones that have value. Black parts continued to be made ...

agreed. Some of the guys on here get a little edgy because it's a common pattern: new member, a couple of pictures, some questions that end up with valuation, which in turn ends up suspiciously ending up on ebay shortly thereafter. It seems you are genuinely interested in the car details, and it's ...

Thanks everyone for the info you've given me. My son is 2 and a half right now and he is into nothing BUT cars. He probably has over 100 hotwheels and a lot of monster trucks. He also has a few remote control cars he is actually decent at driving already. I've decided to keep it for him. It will be ...

We have a new member whose focus is, clearly, valuation of his finding. ... so let's cut the chase - I'll give you $49 for it, including shipping of course! :D Honestly, I really like the car. And I'm a woman btw. Decided to keep it for my son so he can do something with it when he's older. He's on...

I may try it. I've been trying to find others like it to figure out it's actual value but I don't think I'm wording it correctly because I am not seeing any like it.

As for value, check completed listings on ebay for cars of similar condition.

I've tried finding it on eBay and I can't. What exactly would you recommend typing in the search engine to find one exactly like this? I must not be wording it correctly?

Looks legit; correct arms, towers, tub, etc. A vintage worlds car and very collectible. :mrgreen: Where would you recommend as far as selling? I have literally no clue where to go with it if it's that collectable I don't just want to sell it to anyone. I like it too much lol. Won't be playing with ...

Nice looking car. Have fun with it. But also know depending on the condition it could be fairly collectible. A lot of times people dyed the original white parts black so that all the parts in the kit matched. If its really clean and not scratched up on the pan you may be better selling it for a few...

Absolutely.

I recently was handed this rc10 car. I've tried to do research on it, and from what I've found I'm pretty sure it's a world's car.. whether it's an early or late model I can't figure it out. I didn't post any pictures of the inside, but if anyone needs them to give me some info on it I can send them...
