I bought this new in 1990 I think. It's an Rc10 team car in kit #6035. I have never raced, just enjoyed whoppin all the Tyco's. I would like to clean it up for my son and I, where should I start and where is the cheapest source for parts? Do Hobby Shops still carry wheels, tires, bodies and such that fit this style?

Neat car! I ALWAYS LOVED THE TEAM CARS. Parts are pretty hard to come by since most of them are discontinued. If you're patient you could find what ever you need, simply watch the online bid sites and watch the BST section here. Associated still makes a few odds and ends, but keep in mind it is a 20 year old car. I think you have two options, sell it to a collector for them to restore and buy your son a new RC with that money, or be patient and find all your parts you would need to rebuild it. What ever you choose have fun! Oh yeah 3rd option, you restore it and keep it and buy your son his own new RC!

Looks like you have most of everything you need to get started. I would get a new battery and charger and give it a go.
