Rc500 on road nitro

found a 2wd rc500 on craigslist. seems to be mostly complete.
still waiting for the rest of the parts to come in.

i have a few questions about this. wat year was it made, is there newer rc models that use the same belt and foam tires for the back? what would be a correct body to put on it?
does any one else here have a rc500 that they still run? i know parts are rare and these cars are worth a fine chunk of cash if you find the rite buyer.

along with the deal came a (i think) rc12 I or E.

yes his name is matt, not sure about matthew john though.
got a few rc10 and other off him no issues.
why is he known here or something i should know about?
actually he emailed me the link to this forum when i first got the rc10s off him

either way the parts will be on my door step tomorrow! guess the guy had shipped them late, if he told me i wouldnt cared but he had me worried for a few days :lol:
