What version YZ10 are these?

[eddscott]

I got 2 YZ10s off ebay and I'm pretty sure one of them is a Pavadis but not sure what the other one is. They've been fiddled with over the years so not sure what is original and what isn't.











Neither car has a one way which is a surprise. I've restored an Optima Mid and an Egress but I think these are going to be the biggest challange as genuine parts are so rare.

I think the bottom one is a pavadis as it has 7 battery slots cut out. The top one looked to be a 95 going by the offset screws on the top deck. Although that top deck is a fibre-lyte version and not original.

It's quite difficult to tell as there was quite a few different versions.

I got one a few weeks back and I'm none the wiser to what it is.

I,m off the same opinion the lower one looks like a pavidis, but they both have been modified.

I bought Ryans other 2 cars I was wondering who'd bought these off him! Apparently those alloy wheels were custom made for him although they do look familiar.

Ken, the first two pics look like a yz10 '94 chassis but with the rear shock brace as you get in the '95. The last two pics are pavadis '95

Top car looks like a '94, with Fibrelyte top deck and battery hold downs, and some homebrew shock mount adaption?
Lower pic does look to be a Pavidis for sure.

Wow the linked Pavadis is something special. Thanks for the MRT link. I would like those wheel discs on mine.

Personally I am not keen on the alloy wheels from my lot. When I do the rebuild I won't be sticking to all genuine parts. I haven't with the others I've done (an Optima Mid and an Egress) and they still look good to me.

. I am disappointed neither car has a TSC. The shell I would like either a Masami copy or 94 box art.
