Help, need ID on chassis
Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 3:34 am
I am new to this forum, glad you guys are here...
So I bought an "A" stamp RC10 and it has a lighter color gold and the "A" stamp is imprinted from a die on the bottom. The box has a address of East Edinger and the outer model description is ink stamped on the box with #6010.
I have 2 other RC10's prior to that and both are a darker gold and have a raised "A" stamp on the bottom. One box was from East Edinger and the other was Cadillac Ave. I know one box has the model info on a sheet of paper that is glued to the outside with #6010. The other box has eluded me and I dont remember if it was ink stamped or glued paper to the box.
My questions are:
1) is the newer one I just bought rare, because of the imprinted "A" stamp vs. a raised "A" stamp?
2) is the East Edinger address older than Cadillac Ave address?
3) what does the different gold colors tell me?
4) is the ink printed model info older than the glued paper info on the box?
5) what is the more collectible model and why?
6) does anyone know about rare red and green aluminum chassis that are really rare or collectible?
Thanks for any help and info, I have pics but on my phone and its just too late now. I can post them later.
I am a new collector and plan to restore these and more in the future.
