This is an RC10 based dirt oval conversion. There were various after-market conversion kits available during the late 80s into the 90s for the original RC10 platform. It's difficult to determine the exact age of yours but from what I see you have an early 3-gear transmission but that could have been part of the conversion also. It's likely from the early 90s. I have basically the same car with a more conventional buggy style pan.


Its value is relative to your area and if you find someone who really wants this car. It's an oddity and not something you see often. An RC10 enthusiast would probably like it because it's something different but a collector probably wouldn't be interested. You're not going to get rich. My guess is that you'd be lucky to get $100 for it. Maybe $40-80. That's a broad range but if you found an eager buyer then he'd be willing to pay more than the average RC enthusiast who would probably hand you $40. If you have good tires and a body then that will add a few bucks to the price.

RC10s are a big part of the RC hobby in general; especially to Team Associated. Those cars helped bring popularity to the hobby and made a name for Associated.
