Hot Trick RC10

Post by mikedealer »

I REALLY couldnt afford it this month, and i was almost hoping i got outbid, but i won myself a Hot Trick RC10, and for the price i think its a huge steal.

yea pictures are small but it says its the full hot trick conversion, looks like it has chassis, both shock towers, steering and a-arms f/r, so even though i really couldnt afford it this month, i couldnt let it be passed up. Guess i have a 6th car now to be restored, i got a stealth team car, 2 gold pans, a RPM chassis car that needs a rebuild, and a custom project with a tube chassis im currently building but have been taking forever with, i keep changing things and having new idea for the car lol, i need 5 things at this point to complete the car lol..

Was watching that one too, just being curious. I like the reversed shock look, though I doubt many people were racing that way back in the day. I am really anxious to have better details of the front shock strut, I never saw a HT one that has that shape... Body is not a Parma Chenowoth, but I don't have any clue either, Jay?

well the car came today, looks really great. the Front/Rear Arms, Front and rear shock towers, Steering Servo Saver, and Red Alloy Spring Clamps all look to be in pristine condition without a scratch.

The Chassis and Side Brackets and Nose Plate Have some random small holes drilled into them, but its not terrible, just not symetrical. Twister Motor is in great shape. has a nice shape vintage victor speed controller, and looks like it has a full set of the Hot Trick "Steering Rod Ends" Throughout the car. Pictures to follow later before i strip it down lol.

MrLexan, is that hot trick chassis you have in good shape that you are selling? i may be in the market now lol.

they coming, i lost my memory stick and was too impatient to wait, so i started to disassemble lol.

arms and towers look near mint, steering has a slight scuff but not even noticeable, shock clamps look new, and the side brackets/front plate/chassis needs replacing, but thats no big deal.... i hope lol

pictures tonight when i get home from work.
