Now the photos are clearer it does look more like a WCS but with the later '94 YZ10 shock mounts, rear gearbox top and upper link mount. The updated parts on the rear are much more durable than the WCS parts, so I can see why they have been added. Being a WCS makes it pretty rare, there weren't many available back then so pretty hard to find these days.

You could say that! Although its the only Yokomo I own or have ever owned... but I think I 'peaked' with that one!

Would be interesting to have a look through your spares to see if any of the missing kit parts are there... like the rear magnesium lower gearbox housing & distinctive rear shock tower?

I rather like the white G10/FRP material - I think it adds to that 'prototype' feel

Dan, was having a re-read about my car and noticed you'd mentioned about the spares, i found these in a box, could these be the missing kit parts you mention?

Yes! There's your missing parts!!

The white GRP top deck (Photo 6) - white GRP rear shock tower, bulkhead & cap & the rear camber pick-up bracket (all parts in Photo 8) are all WCS specific items
