Clean T2 you got there. Sold mine a while back to buy something else.
As far as the different kits, I'm pretty sure there was the team truck and the sport truck. No rtr for that model. Made from 1995 to about 98 or 99.

Very nice truck!
You mention it was difficult to find? Since joining this forum to learn more about the RC10GT I was rebuilding, I've seen so many beautiful vintage R/C vehicles and often wonder, "Where are they found?" Does it help being on the west coast? eBay is flooded with apparent garbage... Perhaps it takes a keen eye that I just don't have. Sure do love seeing the gems that others find though!!

It is hard to find good ones because at this point they have been around for a long time, and most older vehicles end up as bashers that get beat. Yours is probably top 5 nicest I have seen. Mine was in pretty good shape, team model with a few upgrades, but someone hacked the rear part of the chassis where the rear bulkhead attaches. Previous owner put the wrong rear mounts on for the arms that sat too far forward hitting the chassis. Solution? Apparently a dremel was preferred over getting the right part.
As far as finding a good version of whatever your looking for takes time, patience, and money. You will spend more for a nicer version obviously. My RC10 Graphite was a little on the pricey side but it had some really nice original parts and aftermarket stuff also.
