Did you figure out what it was? Kyosho something?

nice looking project.

Reminded me of the Kyosho Vanning

thanks got the pics from the auction, those might come in handy.
the chyi has drive shafts the kyosho a chain, I dont have that roll cage thats a pity.

might clean it up a bit and try to put it back together, could make a nice thread.

HI!... By the looks of it, it would be easy to do a electric conversion on and run it.

Right then after the initial assembly some of the parts arrived The fuel tank, the 2 speed gear upgrade plus the original rims I tried the tyres that came with it on the rims, they just made it look too narrow so I ordered some others I also switched the position of the front body mount assembly, so that it sat inboard more and would angle the posts to suit the body

Oh and I got the original Tower Hobbies decals even though I won't be using the original body shell I will use these to dress it up

Fun car, The body looks like a RC10B2 I love these type of bodies

yeah, it also reminds me of the Losi stadium truck bodies too I'll be going with a Hummer H2 shell for fun

I prefer the stadium

Ok then, so the new tyres are fitted and the body trimmed for paint these tyres make it look soooo much better I still need to adjust the body mounts to suit and then its on to the motor rebuild and to make rear chassis stabilizing rod

Same with the humvee it is very nice
