Not sure what wheels are on this, but they look pretty sweet. Tires look good too. I know these wheels have sold for over $100 on ebay. Has a stealth tranny, and some of the other parts look pretty nice. Those Rc10GT arms should bring $30-$40 re-sale on ebay. If your looking for some nice wheels this might be a good deal for you.

There seem to be opposing goals applied to that car. Super strong, heavy arms paired with a lightened, frail chassis.
You could drive it into a curb and the arms would hold up, but the chassis would look like a taco :lol:

The A-arms are made by Team Blue Star for the RC10GT. I have had mixed experiences with Team Blue Star. I have there tranny case and was very disappointed with it. It was blatantly mis-represented in the add, and the quality left something to be desired. However, I also have their chassis, and it is a top-notch piece. Their customer service sucks, and their shipping is hit and miss. Sometime items arrive quickly, and sometimes they take forever. Also, just a heads-up, there is no rebuild kit available for their shocks. In case you were wondering.

The shock collars appear to be CRP, the rear and possibly front springs appear to be Losi, it's missing the nose brace tubes, and the guy who built it really likes butterfingers. :lol:

All in all it looks like a sweet ride. I almost bought, but I would have just parted it out, so it seemed kind of pointless.

If I were you I wouldn't run those wheels, way too risky! Thos ewheels are probably worth as much or more than the rest of the car. Does anyone know what brand they are? Technacraft? Sees?

they look like Technacraft from what I remenber seeing back in the mid 80's..

Yes Im most likely gonna sell em...

Those wheels were made by See's. Tecnacrafts are always either two or three piece bolt together designs
