O'donnell pipe is one of my favorite :)
The shape is pretty unique and looks like the club :lol:
It's really matching to RC500 :)

Attached RC500 is 4WD. But a little bit unique as well.
It has been installed a single speed and the early type suspension
with the chain drive unit. The motor is ROSSI C21 Competition

Haaa another interesting car, yes I like this eaxhaust shape as well, together with the Paris that has a large round diameter at the exit side, real lookers on vintage cars :ok:
Superb RC500 is it a early model due to the chain drive :?: in such case why is it a 4WD :?: I thaught chain drives came only in 2WD..
Great :ok:

Simon Yeah~,You are right :lol:
There was nothing this kind of set up on ASSOCIATED racing history.
The chain drive unit was just for the early model of 2wd only in the early /80's.

I really like the combination of the chain drive,V shape sus arm and narrow damper.
It looks more classic style.
This RC500 4WD is a kind of my dream car based on that :D I Just realized it.

RC500 had many version from 80's to 90's. It's a very interesting and historical chassis :D
I like Ron Paris pipe,too 8)

Cool RC500 setup 8) I like the O'Donell pipe. This is a similar shaped pipe in poor shape
Image It needs a lot of polishing

The differential is the same and should be interchangeable between a chain drive and a belt drive?

Hi OCA1 :)
Your pipe is welded the holding stay on the top. It's a functional addition :ok:
After polishing, It must be getting brilliant :D

The diff of RC500 is exactory interchangeable between the chain and the Belt :!:
