EDIT: I have now identified both of these:
Purple one is likely a HSP Warhead/Redcat Shockwave. They are very similar buggies and I lean to HSP Warhead due to green wheels (Although they could be aftermarket)
Blue one was a lot harder to identify but it is a Great Sprint VH-L1/Sprint VH-L1/Speed Sprint VH-L1/Beast VH-L1. Seems like the name varies but it matches exactly to what I have.


I acquired 2 nitro buggies on a trade and am not sure what they are, the guy couldn't tell me what they are. Best he had was the purple one is something cat. I think it may be Redcat but not sure what model. The blue one has servos that say victory hawk and tires that say beast.
I also have a transmission or gearbox but not sure which it came from, both came already disassembled.

Any help identifying or even a similar model I can use to acquire parts would be awesome, as both have engines but are missing a number of parts.

Welcome to the forum. What you have looks like chassis and engines from Redcat and or HSP according to Google Lens. Go to the play store and download Google Lens and it will help you identify them further.

I do agree that the one is a likely a hsp warhead or redcat Shockwave. The blue one I'm not sure is, the blue anodized "radio tray" doesn't look like them and i found 15 on the engine. The body mounts on it also appear to maybe be a truck body

The purple/pink one is definitely a HSP or one of it's rebrands (ExceedRC, Redcat Racing). The blue one looks similar to a Rapid VH, but I'm not 100% certain of that.
 
Thank you both for your help. I was able to identify both of them.
