How rare are the first RC10's?

[chance]

I just got a first-gen RC10 off of ebay for about $110, I ordered a spare body, wing kit and gear cover for the princely sum of $21 direct from Team Associated - the car comes with no wing and a fairly ratty looking body ( actually it's in good condition, the owner decided to do a flame paintjob on it and is not custom car sprayer, tht's for sure [xx(] ), so I'll use that for hard-driving and do a nice paint job on the new shell. anyone got the original sticker sheet as I forgot to order one of those... I might do it in a gold/peeled back-to-expose-checkers kind of thing ( gold to match the tub ) or maybe purple to give it that pimp-style feel [], but not sure yet. Anyone know if there is a shop doing custom spraying in the UK? (saves buying a new airbrush...[] ).

I've owned grasshoppers ( got my first one in about '85 ), blackfoot, fast attack vehicle, sand scorcher, a Tomy 4wd race buggy of late nineties vintage that went like a bat out of badword, an 1/8th IC Mugen worlds buggy and a few others - the first gen RC-10 was always the one car I wanted and never got... I'm so happy to have found one :-D
