Hi Everyone new to the forum here,
so after about 4 years i am trying to get my old RC car started again and i am wondering once and for all what model it is. this was given to me about 8 years ago by a guy that knew nothing about it and did not run. after about 4 years i couldn't figure out how to get it going to i brought it to a shop nearby (which has now since closed). all i remember was that they had to change the carb and tune everything and said there was no way it could have started "as is" and the parts were mismatched. after tuning and replacing the carb this thing fired up and was KICKA**. now the interesting part, when i inquired about a body for this to protect the insides he told me that it was not a rc10gt as the box and the documentation said but something else (i can't remember unfortunately) and i would have a hard time finding a top for it because it was old. (i double checked him and all the rc10gt's i can find on the internet has a blue tub and this one has a black one so i am at a complete loss)
so i used it once and now it has sat for another 4 years but i would like to get it going again. besides all the maintenance and a good cleaning this thing deserves and needs i am trying to figure out what model this is once and for all so i can use the wonderful internet to find a body for it. does anyone have any idea??? thank you a million times for any response!
