Default How much is my RC10 worth?

Vintage Associated RC10 Gold Pan "A" Chassis, Restored and very Clean with excellent or new parts such as tires (new), battery box (new), body and wing (new), nose plate (new), aluminium alloy jelly bean wheel cover (new).Includes Motor (kyosho mega motor), esc (futaba MC210CB), servo (fp148) and receiver (AM 75). All electronics in excellent and working condition.The rider and the stickers are a repro. Nothing is broken.

I won a chasis from ebay, its new never been used so once I install it the car will be really clean almost new condition with only very minor grease discoloration to a couple of white Nylon areas. Anyone with any experience with this able to offer your opinion would be great, not looking to sell, just curious what you all think.

Need to see the chassis and underside of the arms...any scratches will lower the value.

Basically, a new built RC10 that has never been run, shelf queen condition, should go for around $350 - $400. If you get two competitive bidders on EBAY, it could easily go higher. Your original box art paint job is a bonus so I would value it on the higher side.

EDIT: oh wait those are real aluminum rims made by AE? Add another $200+

Near mint condition gold pans are not all that difficult to find... this one in particular (without seeing better pictures), is flat out gorgeous... Other than I think the color is off? MIght want to ask the guys on rc10talk.com. (about the color, not price.. they will kick you off the site for asking that question! ) I spend a bit of time there with the other classic collectors.

Unless hard up for money, I wouldn't sell it. The problem with these, is that they are priceless... It could go for $150 one month.. $4 or 500 the next.

Here is my 80s shelf queen:

yeah the rims are AE aluminum rims, paid a mint for them. The other pics are in the link above the photo. The new underside I am going to install will complete this and make it as near perfect as i can get it.

Hey there Capt. America, nice queen you got there. Which model is that one exactly?

I believe there's some guy in Singapore who is making repro Tecnacraft rims...but with slightly different design in the middle gold part.. $100/set on EBAY.

I don't know what it's worth, but for whatever this is worth: That is one gorgeous buggy there. I hope you don't ever have to sell it because that is one great display piece.

I'll give you twenty bucks cash...right now...

That is probably the cleanest rc10 i've ever seen, should get a pretty penney for that one.

That car is gorgeous. Love the original JRX2 - probably my favorite car of my whole racing career.
