I got a rc10t in early 92, also had a rc10. I always liked rpm stuff, so when that complete chassis came out i saved and bought 2 setups. I remember liking them alot.
It stinks, I specifically remember taking one chassis apart to dye it, stuck everything in a tackle box, friend borrowed box for some reason, never saw those parts again. But other dAy i found the chassis from that lost set and the originL instructions. My youngest seems to like the buggy look, i had planned on trying to build out that chassis, but it sounds that may be difficult!?
Cool website, all this lipo and brushless stuff have me feeling pretty old, and stupid. My last race with a rc anything was '96, so a little lost with all this modern stuff.

You're actually still okay, rpm still makes arms for the buggy and truck along with associated carrying the rest of what you'll need to complete your project. The towers can be found on eBay fairly easily and I'm sure there is a few forum members that make them. So you're still in good shape haha it's just hard to find the rpm bulkhead and other items undyed in new condition. The rc10 and 10t are still very much alive which makes it easier to find parts. As for the brushless stuff... It's alot easier then the old brushed stuff imo , a lot less maintenance. Welcome to the forum Cr500

A few years ago I was able to buy a bunch of OEM parts directly from the factory and actually asked Richard to sign a chassis along with a letter proving the signature . I've always loved their products!
