i've always wanted a nice yz10.

i bought one a few years back that looked like a sweet resto candidate and it ended up being junk. hopefully this one is better...
it certainly looks like its in hella good shape. it looks like it was ran a couple times and then put away broke. i think i'll pretty much just clean and tidy it up, maybe take it for a spin before shelving it.

Hoop, I may have one of those bodyshells NIP for that type of YZ10 if you are interested. (The US one rather than the Pancake type shell we got in Europe)

I had been watching that one, too. It was a great deal at that price. Especially with the electronics it comes with, it's a steal. Nice win.

I know nothing of those cars but it looks sweet to me. But I am a sucker for old electronics too. You could probably but those Novak pieces in a shoe box with wheels attached and I would at least drool a little.

Very nice score. Hit up bscotti for spares if you need them.... I just sold him a bag of good used parts last week (sorry, a week too late for you).

i'll see what front end parts the guy sends. from what he said its the missing parts, so all i'll need is a rear carrier and a new rear plastic bulkhead piece.
its really neat to look at. it seems like it was just put together like a week ago or something.
lots better shape than my other one...
bleh!

Great condition Kyosho gold shocks on that one too! Lazer fans will be crying out for a nice set of those

yah, man, lemme know what you need. If it's not in the lot Jay sold me, I'm sure I have it elsewhere.

I am fairly certain that there is a rear upright in that lot. Hoop, I have a bunch of NIP parts. Let me check on the rear bulkhead plastic piece.
