Sidewinder was issued in 1988 for the Horizon TQ10, was never supplied in any Associated kit.

Has anyone made a list for each RC10 and their appropriate/stock bodies?

Post by **templeofspeed** » Thu Sep 27, 2007 4:40 pm

Protech: All short arm gold cars; 6000, 6010, 6012, 6016

Protech II : 6011 & 6014 CE, 6025, 6030 Graphite

Viper: 6035, 6036 Team Cars

Sidewinder: DLRTQ10 TQ10 kit

RCPS Turbo Mirage: 6037 World's Car

I made a list of tires, but it got lost in the BST...

Why is my mind drawing a blank related to the box art on the Team Car and seeing a Viper body? I don't doubt you... more over I think I am missing something here. Did they come in box with art other than a Viper?

The boxes for the CE and Team car both show the Protech II, in fact if you look at both boxes they just retouched the CE on the box top to make it have a "black" chassis.

The graphite kits used the same box throughout production right down to only having seven championships...

Temple has that info down! As far as in relation to the box art, the 6035 and 6036 team cars that come with vipers show the protech II on the lid. I think they just have a "team car" and "stealth" yellow sticker on them.

The very late CEs in the UK (when the Worlds car was out) I think around '95 had a viper body in the box.. At least one of mine did?

Actually the Team Car box is printed "T E A M C A R" on the box top just above where it says RC10, as well as the stealth tranny info being printed on a black field in the upper rh corner. The CE got the slapped on green sticker.

It's really stupid to have this knowledge...

My 6014 (the last of the CE kits, which included a Novak Rooster ESC) was missing the body, but it's very likely the Viper could have been supplied. I also suspect that the very early Team Cars may have shipped with Protech II's.

We really need some hard data from an Associated representative.
