Hello just picked up a set of vector VC-10's in need of a little restoration to join my ever growing vector family..can anyone tell me which vector sticker they had on is it the traditional vector logo or the other one that was bigger with the red outline?
Cheers Fellas :daumenhoch:

FFS, I've been looking for nearly three years for a set of those or VC8's :LolLolLolLol:
It varies from year to year from what I have seen... ad from 1984 although these are VC8's

I have three sets of vectors now vector pro's currently being re-chromed,them vc-10's and some haro signitures i picked up the VC-1O's for $60 on usgaybay any idea how much they are worth?
I have a bit of a vector problem methinks.

The sticker on the pic marty is that just the normal vector logo or is it bigger than the standard one...got a standard decal off del for the pro bars which is spot on but the one in the pic looks much bigger?
-
The stickers, difficult to tell as Vector used about three varations of style plus position over the years kind of like they stuck them where they liked dependent on who was doing the stickering up in the factory ;D.
Price wise, difficult to tell, a NOS pair went on the bay a few months back for around £100 but I've seen them go as low as £40ish (missed as sniper failed) and as much as £150 (too much for me).
If you have a pair of VC8's in particular that you need to get rid pre-resto or good condition, let me know ;) :daumenhoch:

I aint seen any VC's come up since i started looking apart from the ones i just got they are to go on my gen2 and I will alternate between them and the haro signatures the lad had them on his old gt and he had them listed as either vector redline or mongoose bars..I will get them fully restored back to former glory and I will post some before and after pics of all three sets when they are all finished.

But couldnt find the right re-pops...
Ended up getting the Vector Haro ones from Vertego...

Yeah the ones I have are silver with black vector logo and the red strip..the ones from vert-ego are cool and del's repops are spot on and he does the original as well as the haro sig too.
