Rc 10t

[10tman]

I was wondering if anyone knows what an original rc10t is worth I found 3 of them at a estate sale they are 99% complete down to the original associated stock motors, i am missing a gear cover for one and the battery straps for all three, one has unpainted body and unused decal sheet.

Roughly $100 each. Depending on the condition there in.

If it's the original 10T, they'd be great for a shelf queen project. Parts for the ol' girls are hard to find anymore. I had one for a while; they're great little trucks.

Thanks for the input, I was just curious what they were worth. I am setting them up for my kids, I found out that associated still has parts for them and a lot of the T2 and GT parts will fit

Just don't let them launch the trucks 10 feet into the air (laughing).

All kidding aside, as long as they're driven gently, I see no reason they wouldn't make great first trucks for the kids.

I used to own one of those many, many years ago and it was a good little truck, and like you said you can still get parts for them, so if there a good deal pick them up...

I got a real good deal on them, I paid $20 dollars for all three and one was ready to run with futaba radio and speed control. It was a once in a life time deal we all dream about

Not bad at all. Definitely post up some pictures of your score. I kinda regret trading off my 10T... The ol' girl had pretty much every aftermarket part out there... The only stock parts were the shocks, the transmission case, and the idler and diff gears. Everything else was aftermarket.

I traded it off for a Losi Double-XT; the guy I traded to sold it to a kid, who promptly smacked it head-on into a curb. Almost made me cry when I heard that.

I am going to have to put bearings in all of them as they still have original bushings, any ideas were to get them cheap ?

 

[HeartBreak]

Odd, the edition I had came with full bearings.

If memory serves, the transmission has bearings throughout; it's just the axles that need bearings. They are 3/8x3/16, two each tire. That's if memory serves correctly.

 

[10tman]

Actually they are all bushings including the transmission, the manuals show bushings also

 

[HeartBreak]

That must've been the sport edition of the kit that you have. The version I had was the Team Edition.

FastEddy has bearing kits that are a really good deal, but I don't know if he has one for your truck.

Edit: I take that back he dose have one, here is a link. http://www.teamfasteddy.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=296_300&products_id=2187

Good catch, abadk9420! I had completely mind-blanked on Team Fasteddy.... The bearing sizes listed all look correct (from memory).

Thanks HeartBreak. He may even have a SS screw kit for them as well, if you wanted to replace them...

Thanks for the info, I checked it out and Fast Eddie has full kits for 15.50, well worth the money.
