I recall this one as being an YZ10 - Is this correct?

Yes a YZ 10/870c. It has an after market rear shock mount and a peculiar (home made) half top deck and Kyosho gold shocks.

Thanks Alex - This model had no top deck from stock?

This one then? It must some kind of works - I think the motor says Yokomo pro?

the 870c had the carbon fiber right angle backbone, which is installed in your car, no top plate. That half top plate looks like a place to put a servo, probably for a mechanical speed controller.

Works 91'

Yep, with a slightly modified steering setup and non standard turnbuckles and a RPM bumper.

Thanks for Your kind answers -
What about the motor - is it standard Yokomo stock for a 91´ works?

I believe the 91' never came with a motor out of the box.

And now for the last one - then I won´t bother You guys for at least 4-6 hours

Thanks again - but did Yokomo produce a motor labelled "pro" ?

hi dennis, the last car is called the "hotdog" entry level model released by yokomo in 96, show us the motor in the 91

Yes the last one is the Hotdog. The chassis, bulkheads, shock mounts and shocks are 1st generation YR4, the first Yokomo touring car. The suspension is that of a 91'. Interestingly the Hotdog came with rear dogbones and only 5 balls per diff. It also shared the same centre shaft and spur gear as the later YZ 10.

Many thanks for the information - Is it still possible to source chassis parts for this one or the YR4?
I´have a new build YR4 without the top deck and that makes it flex just a little on the good side
