Snagged my first RC10

Post by stampede_dude »

I decided to take the plunge and buy it, It seems like I got a good deal. It came with a new RC10L3 roller that was never ran, and aluminum rims. $85 shipped for the lot. What do you guys think?

Here she is. It says in the auction that it's never been ran, and it looks like it's been sitting for a while with those cracked tires. It'll probably go up for sale to sweeten the RC10 deal, and to get a few parts to make it complete.

looks like a good deal to me.

There's always those guys who get a NIB rc10 sitting in the closet of a house they just bought- or the ones who happen to stop at a garage sale and for $1 find some lucky score.

But for the rest of us I think you got a good deal!

Anyone got any idea where I can get some of the 6320 Nose Brace Tubes? I'd really like to go with the factory silver, I'm going to shelf it if the bottom's not in too bad of condition.

eBay's probably your best bet for the original nose tubes. However, the black anodized tubes are still available and can be stripped.

BTW, I hope you know what you've just gotten yourself into. :shock:

PM me your mailing address. RC10Johnny mailed me a few sets for my Team Car project, I'd be glad to forward you a good set. :)

Oh yea, and yes, you did get a steal. :wink:
