Thats the RC10 that was released as the update to the original gold pan. It came out at the same time as the RC10T. You can only get parts for it if somone has them on here or Ebay. Check this out, Team Associated dosn't carry parts for them anymore but you can still get a body! I would be careful how you bash it, it's prob. better off as a shelf queen.

Myself and many others it seems have rebuilt these cars with parts still available from AE. Towers, arms, stealth trans parts are all still available. I hear that if you bend or break the chassis or those bars that run through the front tower, you will be S.O.L. It is either a team car or a worlds edition by the looks of it, ( gray shocks) probably born around 1991.

didnt the worlds edition team car have black arms, graphite trans brace and a black fiberglass shock tower along with yellow wheels. i believe that is a standard TEAM car not a worlds car

You have a 1992/1993 RC10 Team Car model 6035. If you want more (or too much) info, parts help, etc. check with the RC10 perverts at http://www.rc10talk.com. Nice condition, keep those white parts white.

It is the updated factory team, that superceded the gold chassis. It came out at the same time as my 10T.
Its cool to keep around, parts are readily available if you know where to look. RPM makes a replacemant, regeared tranny. The shock internals are idential to any of the associated buggies, even the b44. You should be able to get the arms from RPM, they make them for the 10T. The chassis is almost bullet proof, you can still get the noze braces, bushings and bearings.
The only difficult parts to get are shock towers, the little blocks that hold the rear arms to the chassis, and a couple of little thngs for the servo saver. You can even find the parts for the rear diff.
Look on AE's site and you can down load the orgional manual and get all of the part numbers.
Honestly it is a cool car to keep around. Yours is not a shelf queen, but dont distroy it either. Its worth about $100. If you have the means to fully rebuild the buggy and put modern, fast electronics in the buggy it will be a big conversation piece at the track.
The truth of the matter is, just like my 10T. You can easily sink more money in it than it is worth, and it will not be as competitive as a modern b4. I have $350 in my 10T with no electronics, $330 in my b44, and $189 in my T4. Even with the same identical electronics my T4 team truck, is much faster, more nimble, lighter, and overall better.
Its up to you to do what you want with it. Its cool, nastalgic, and they are getting rare. Keep in mind it is no diamond in the rough and is only worh about $100.
Check out rc10talk.com, that place is a world of information and an excellent site.
Though it is a truck, you can still buy new in the box, orgional rc10t's for around $200 on ebay, NIB buggies are slightly higher.
