I know this car is old to you guys but it’s new to me, it’s my RC10CE . I have just received it from the U.S. and it's had a long journey. Some (if not all) of you will recognise it, as it is very distinctive and has been posted before. This car is a credit to Shodog, (as I’m sure you are aware he was the last owner), it’s absolutely stunning and goes straight to the top of my shelf. I will in time refurbish the body as it has a number of little marks (any advice on how best to do this would be gladly accepted) and some of the decals (pin stripes) are coming away of which I was aware. I can not explain how please I am with this Associated it's awesome. I won’t post loads of pics as I think you have all seen it before and please be kind when telling me I’ve got the wheels on upside down or something , don’t forget the newbie status. Thanks for looking.
Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

Sir, I joke not I was loosing sleep. I thought it was lost in transit, never to be seen again. I'm lost with these numbers, is a 6016 a 6 gear car because I think I have one of those?

I can remember when that was listed and it’s but now price (still kicking myself), I think the guy had a graphite for sale at the same time. It’s a top shelf car for sure, stunning! I think I saw the thread when you managed to trade your wheels (gota do what, you gota do ) it would be nice to see the new ones on.

Just picked this up and think i'm going to build a Cliff Lett 90 replica. I need to gather some parts and go to work. Think I have a good car to start with.
Hello all. I didn't see an introduce yourself thread, so I'll just jump right in. I just picked this old beauty up off Craigslist the other night for $25:
The guy had it listed as simply RC car chassis; he knew nothing about it. I'd been wanting...

Welcome to the forum, and a new addiction :lol: . I saw all the bodies you posted, and I really think that the roll cage Body shows the most promise. Hack it up and see if you can get it to fit. -Jeff
The cage has since been taken apart, and is...
Well I dug my old RC10CE out of storage. It was missing a few parts, and the shocks seemed a little sketchy. I recently cleaned it all up, rebuilt the Stealth and the shocks. Original shell was MIA so picked up a JConcepts shell, and ordered a repo...

Hello all. I am new to the RC10Talk forum. I just finished restoring an RC10CE gold pan B stamp with a stealth transmission survivor from 1992. The car is mint. I am having a Penguin Protech 2 reproduction body and reproduction 90’s TQ Worlds style...

I used stainless welding rod. Easy to find and has a nice finish.
Hello everyone, I'm new here and this is my first post. My 90's RC10CE brings me here today, It's been stored for over 20 years now, temporarily coming out of storage at one point for the kids to play with, it received a new speed control and motor...
This is my latest vintage project. This is a local craigslist score. It's a C stamp stealth car with original black parts. The car was in pretty good shape when I got it except for a bent nose and a whole lot of dirt and grime. I have given it a...

So, I sold this car to my buddy at work. Somehow he managed to lose the Protech body. So, before consulting me, he went to the hobby shop and they sold him a Rustler body for it. :roll: So he bought it and trimmed it out and quickly realized that it...
