I'm not 100% certain, but that looks a bit like an original Associated RC10. I haven't seen one firsthand but have seen a few pictures here and there and it seems to have many of the same features.

Here's a pic of one right of the Team Associated website:

How much do you think it is worth. I want to buy to bring it to life again. But how much do you think it is worth. It is just a rolling chassis not elections. 50$? 100$??
I wouldnt pay no mare than 100$ i think unless it was running. So please tell me how much you think it is worth?

If it's just the chassis, I wouldn't go more than maybe $25-$30. I just looked on e-bay and I saw a few complete which only had bids of like $50 on them. So for a rolling chassis I would only go like half that. You'll still have to invest in a radio, batteries, ESC and motor so the chassis isn't really worth that much.

yea it is an Original(sp?) RC10 the first one made had the gold chassis

Its definitly the old Gold-tub RC10 with a lowered suspension to run street tires.

Couple guys here at work still run theirs. VERY decent design for 15 years ago. It was a $350 kit back in the day (*yo). I agree on $50 being too much for a rolling chassis nowadays.

It's definitly the old RC10. I still have mine. PArts are very hard to get. Was a good buggy back in the day.

I was going to buy it. But i relized that it would take some money to get it running... Money i am not willing to pay for it. Yes it would be sweet to have a old car running with a brushless syster lol. BUt it is just 2 much money. maybe if esp come down i will buy one.
