Greetings all, just registered here and would like to say hi to everyone.

I am currently restoring 2 rc10 sprint cars, pretty badly beat up, they are basically rc10's with a custom chassis. Im having problems finding parts for them obviously.

I know associated still makes certain parts for them etc, and im pretty good with handiwork so i am going to build myself a custom chassis with a sheet of graphite.

Does anyone have a good source for 3rd party replacement parts? i bought some alloy arms at rdent.com and found 1-2 other sites but parts are scarce obviously. any websites or links or whatever would be hugely appreciated!

parts i would kill for right now are:
rear hub carriers in alloy
motor plate
Rear Arm Carriers (like the 3degree ones)
front bulkhead in alloy or something different than the stock one.
front hub carriers and front caster blocks in alloy


any help would be great! thanks guys

just to add too, these parts dont need to be like OEM stock obviously, i know they make like different motor plates etc for example, any type would be fine!

Mike,Try www.rc10talk.com (http://www.rc10talk.com) You should be able to find most any RC10 part made,"IF" the owner cares to sell.Lots of "SWEET" RC 10's there.
