The T3 IS an electric, unless it's just a T3 body fitted to an RC10 GT. The Shumacher is a pretty old version, more than 5 years I'm pretty sure. The XTR 21 3E I thought replaced the original XT .21. I bought a used XTR 21 3E about four or five years ago, and the 3E version sports a three speed tranny which is a huge performance boost. They are to popular so it can be hard to get parts for sometimes.
The T4 has replaced the T3, not sure of all the differences, but I think the T4 has quite a few improvements. You can get the T4 in kit form for about 175 bucks new, and RTR form for about 230-240 or so. The T3 is a great truck, but the T4 has a little bit wider stance, better shock geometry, among a couple other things that make it even a better truck.
The sandmaster I'm not too familiar with, but looks like some old 1/10 scale buggy. Probably OK, but not for me. Here's a link I found to it. You'll have to find the sandmaster model under buggies. [link=http://www.nitroreview.com/TheDatabase/homekits.cfm]Nitro review[/link]

RE: Need Help on old st's
its really hard to say man... could be $100 each or could be $400 each.. i have an rc10gt that i got for $40 and when im done its going to have about $500 into it.. just use your best judgement and do your homework...
maybe go to tower and do a search on the name of the cars and see what pops up!
