I took an interest in those too, but not to the point of bidding so don't worry. :wink:

Funny as I was going to put a post on here too as to why such a high price.....these are obviously truely rare.......or is somebody about to open a box full of them ???

Please don't tell me the dogbone driveshaft he has for sale is that rare too :roll: I'm a bit more interested in that one. :lol: :lol:

Well if a man loves anything it's his ball-















cups :lol: Mr Cline, I'd be very interested in some ball cups though I couldn't pay those prices...

im a idiot for bidding that high.. im very close to building a all new gold pan, with entirely new parts.. ive been searching on ebay for them mostly and bidding as a find deals on them etc. This isnt a deal but its one of the parts i will need..

only thing i need left are the 4 shocks and a gold chassis, and possibly rear tires/rear rims.

I can help you there for $2500. Just kidding. If I had the money, I'd fight you for those ball cups :lol:

I never thought of that. That is a good idea.

I have a bunch of them some where in a box. I have been just opening them and using them and giving them away at the track. LOL
You guys will be the first to know when I find the box. Is there a list of the hard to find RC10 parts some where? I have really only been into the on road stuff and I might have stuff I don't even know is hard to find just laying around in a box.
Have a nice day! :)

those are hard to find, NIP front shock tower (old style) is hard to find, rear bulkheads with the "long wing tubes" are hard to find, and gold chassis/noseplates are really rare.

everything else pops up on ebay from time to time but anything white will demand a premium
