Re: Aussie's RC10GT Restoration
I like the idea of a white parts GT. What sort of price bracket would I be looking at for a reasonable base unit?

Re: Aussie's RC10GT Restoration
The prices fluctuate so much from one sale to the other but depending on your luck you might be able to find/get one in the $150-$200 range. Maybe less that just needs a good cleaning. Maybe more for one with very little to no run time. The good thing is that trucks still don't have that buggy desirability

Re: Aussie's RC10GT Restoration
White GT stuff is quite hard to come across, they weren't around as long as the RC10/T
I need a new GTII body for one of my trucks and seems they are near impossible to find.

Re: Aussie's RC10GT Restoration
Hi Aussie, romulus22 is correct...i got mine cheap ($100 bucks) but it sure needed a cleaning. I lucked out as it was hardly used. Looks like it took one good hit where the chassis got bent and was laid to rest in the corner for years to come. Chassis was replaced and kit was upgraded to bearings. still in need of an engine...eventually i will finish it...along with all the other projects on my list.Aussie wrote:I like the idea of a white parts GT.

Romulus22...this addiction to associated is killing me man!
Re: Aussie's RC10GT Restoration
^ WOW that looks awesome! I absolutely love those Associated 3 piece wheels, always liked the look of them. Seems like under all that dust and fluff there was a pretty clean truck, sweet find.
If I can find one for around the $100-$170 price bracket (depending on condition) I will probably snatch it up. International shipping is what kills it though, it was roughly $90 to get the last one here

Re: Aussie's RC10GT Restoration
Once you've reached your trader status on the site and you've found your truck. If you need some wheels let me know I've got a new set laying around.
