What parts are you looking for? There are still a ton of newer GT parts out there in online stores. The older white parts are almost all eBay buys.

Buy a good used second hand truck if you have nothing, It will save you a TON of cash. Lots of parts have been discontinued and by the time you find a couple of these you could have bought a complete truck.

You won't be able to find anything new unless you can find an unsold RC10GT2 somewhere.

If I were you I'd search ebay for a good used blue/flat chassis RC10GT. They are plentiful and cheap as you could probably pick one up for around $100 - $150

so I was running the gt last night and noticed it was acting different, turned it off and noticed that the clutch bell was real sloppy. Well it looks like I lost the c clip and bearing somehow and im not sure on which one I need to order
