Here is my 7001 which is quite different to Marlo's

I'm not very tech savvy so he we go....

Same manuals with addendum for rear hubs.

Things get quite interesting here.

Mine came with an offset B stamp chassis instead of inline.



Stock standard "AE" logo body, did all 7001's have "AE" logo bodies?

This kit has thin web arms, thin 2 hole towers, standard stealth trans brace and half hex ball cups.

Tires are all standard logo tires

I just noticed Marlon's box was different (early type) so I had a look. I've got another box the same which may be the original box?, although the addendum for rear hubs would be from a later kit. Interesting.....

The surgeons general warning on the box above strikes me as odd on a 7001.

Good eye on the box label RJ, I would have missed that, don't forget your different decal sheet too!

Marlo - Not to highjack the thread, but since on the topic of your chassis, here is the one I have for my shelfer.

Note that it s drilled for the older style, but not countersunk. Not sure where this fits in the timeline.

Thanks

All Rc10T chassis had the 6 gear tranny holes. With the parts on your truck, I'm guessing your chassis is a B stamp...... but B/W part trucks "could" have come with a C stamp. 10t's only used 5 types of chassis:
1-off line B stamp
2-off line B stamp with in-line battery re-located hole's
3-inline B stamp, with counter sunk 6-gear tranny holes ( as the above two, and last to use it )
4-inline B stamp
5-C stamp.
Hope this helps

Well, that's good information lol.

I never paid attention to the holes. All I knew is RC10T's didn't have gold chassis'.

Thanks
