What to do with 1992 RC10CE?
Howdy folks,
Many years ago I received an RC10CE for Christmas, moved shortly after, and never finished putting it together. I remember it fairly recently, and was thinking about finishing it up. But, then I started thinking; this is a fifteen year old car, maybe I should do some research first. So I've done a little. And it seems that spare parts are probably going to be an issue. It also looks like this thing has become semi-collectible. So, would it be better to throw this thing together and play around with it, or should I sell it, and buy a new car/truck that has more easily accessible spare parts? Any thoughts?

Hey,
If it is new and you want a runner, sell it. Buy a RC10B4 FT and have fun.
Otherwise, it is a nice car for a "collector" who likes the 90's racing "style". Notice, it will never perform as good as a B4.
Have fun buddy,
JYM.

I bash mine around all the time - but I didn't get it new, so I'm not looking for it to be a collector's item or anything. I gave it an overhaul and made it look nice, but still bash around with it. Fun car!

RE: What to do with 1992 RC10CE?
Thanks for the feedback guys. Now I just need to decide what to do with it.
Any thoughts on what it might be worth? Like I said before, we started building it, but didn't finish. So it has never been finished or driven, but it's not in a sealed box either. I do still have the box, manual and all of the parts. The body was never trimmed or painted.
