Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
This is buggy length, but the front arm mount holes are a 10T hole pattern. But the front is too wide to use the 10T front arm mount. What goes on the front of this chassis?

Andy's Pro Race bulkhead. Took me a while to source one, they go for $100+ when people know what they are

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Hmmmm..... sounds like I just need to make my own bulkhead.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
That would also fix the special shock tower and special arms requirement

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Yep Andy’s pro. Front bulkhead looks like this and like Mach v said very hard to find and usually expensive. I recently ran across one for sale but don’t need another one. @jcwrks

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
I sold my spare front bulkhead a couple of months ago. The only spare Pro Race parts I have now are a few that also fit a regular RC10. I need to finish rebuilding my Pro Race buggy and enter it into a BOTM.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
New member who knows very little about AE cars here. I picked up this modified rc10gt the other day. Its got some aftermarket goodies (MIP 360 Stinger, RPM rear arms, RPM front bumper, I suspect MIP CVDs but not sure). I believe that it started life as a 1st gen rc10gt (b1 as you call it?) due to the white plastics, but it doesn't have the black pan that I normally see on these cars. I cannot seem to find any info about aftermarket chassis for the rc10gt, so what is it? I plan to use it as a runner, but want to make sure I'm not going to damage any super-rare parts in the process. If someone who actually knows what they're looking at could point out the mods on this thing, it would be immensely helpful. Thanks guys!

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Looks like a later RTR chassis with the anodizing stripped and aftermarket arms.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

Not a stock chassis, wrong shape. Searching....Thinking AMain, Hardcore Racing, maybe Holeshot Racing.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
There was one made by a local company in Beaverton Oregon called C&J Racing. Pretty sure they were one of the first with slightly angled sides. Came in purple and black, made them for RC10GT and Nitro Hawk.
Edit- after zooming in I can see some purple around the screws. Might well be a C&J Racing chassis

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
To support Jeff's suspicions, the later GT RTR flat pan chassis has nose tube brace mounts next to the servo and a different nose structure to support the front arm behind the bulkhead.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
That's got to be it! Definitely used to be purple and has slightly angled sides. The guy I bought it from lived very close to Beaverton and had had it for over 20 years. Would make sense for it to be a C&J. Cannot believe someone figured this one out! I'll probably be coming back for more advice during this build.GoMachV wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2024 11:31 pm There was one made by a local company in Beaverton Oregon called C&J Racing.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
I probably sold parts to him at Tammies hobbies. Craig, the manager for the car side, was C&J Racing. He had the local high school cutting and bending them, then sent them out for anodizing. Was a great deal and the kids made some money staying after school.
