RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

hi all . I have been looking around here for some time and joind because I need some help . I just pick up a rc10 mip chain drive but no chain , the sprokets are i rough shape . I was hoping that some one knows were to find somthing that will work. or has some idea on part to go with a belt not dig on the belt .
so I do have a cool story on this car . The guy that ownd the car worked a the lhs that helped me in the 80s with my first car and though out the years . frank had this car in the case for all to see I loved to drool over this car thinhing how cool is this . Jump to 2 years ago and sad to say that frank lost his fight with canser, and one of the guys that work there was able to save it from the estate sale . This guy saw that I have a growing collection of vintage car and I now have the car , The hopes are to get this thing back to a nice roller . thanks

Welcome aboard and check on ebay you get lucky but some guys here may have what your looking,DON

Rare-ish parts still come around every now and then and there's guys on here with loads of stuff that might have a part you need. Post up some pictures!

If you can figure out what pitch chain you need then you can probably buy replacement from here:

thanks . I will try I am not good with conputers , plus this thing was covered in dirt and grease super clean , lava sope and a toothbrush are my freind . front hubs are red!

fredswain, thank you that link is what I was looking for , so the coler are red and black do i use brass or zink for the chain?

Hey Steve, welcome aboard with a very lucky find there. The sprockets from the Yokomo 834B are the same, same thing for the chain, these should be a LOT easier to find. Good luck.

think i got the pic thing down , still need to do the shock, got a chain coming from custom works will try to get more done and more pics soon

Looks like it's in not too bad shape. Just get that chain and driveline running smooth and you'll have a great car, ether for running or shelfing.

thanks seth. motor plat was bent , diff case craked, front right hud was in two, the shock shafts have big time wear . The sprokets are missing teeth, looking for new is on hold but sdp-si has ones that will work with some mod's 5 buck each not bad. still trying to find out the chain pitch s.a.e. or metric

Man, first post... MIP conversion! What else do you have up your sleeve???

Too nice. Are you up and running yet?

There is about 30+ car that I have, I just need to take the time to get some pic's. Some place their is a trinity pan car and a buds car. As for the mip custom work was out of the chain , s.d.p. is slow but I should see somethimg wed or thur. thanks

here are some of my other car

WOW Steve, glad I asked!

Lotta cool buggies and custom parts. I am digging the last picture of the custom 6 gear... makes me miss my composite Trinity? wide track. Sold it with a very nice Coca Cola dirt oval vette body

So I got my chain from sdp-si , I got p/n A 6c88-21 this is a 21 pitch chain, fits good seems to roll smooth. One f up don't get the hight tensil this is a pain to link together I ended up cutting part of the loops off.
