Really don't think they're Serpent Impact, Lower chassis and upper A-Arm don't look like it. 235mm Serpent Impact M2 looks different than what you posted.

Indeed impact 1 from around 1994.
Foams will need to be donuts i think. Rims are very different to impact2 unfortunately.
The rims were shared with the 1/10 electric car from that era called tenforce.

Here's my photos of Serpent Impact M2, bought around '93-'94, predecessor of 835's. 235mm Nitro was fought by Serpent Impact and picco Integra. Maybe Kyosho. 235mm nitro got popular in the '90's. Upper a-arm you show just doesn't look correct. and the RCM Impact. Even the box is suspect. looks like a Chinese clone.

Photos you show maybe copies on Old photos. and the chassis reminds me of the '80's.

Here's My Photos of Serpent Impulse M2 just taken, don't mind the dust, it in my museum.

Sorry it just doesn't look like Serpent product, and I've bee purchasing Serpent products since '84, First two speed tranny the Serpent Quattro.

Guys hope you enjoy the Photos.

Mnstr,

For certain you have an impact 1 there. It came pre assembeled like it looks in your pics. I did may of the pre assemblies at that time as I worked in the factory to pay my racing ��.

Your car is a later version than the ones in the vintage pictures as it already has a 2 speed and the brown colored diff parts. This was a special nylon 2 speed to cut costs. It will most likely have an alu insert in the 2nd speed gear.

Are the front king pins secured with clips? Or with screws?
