As Mr Ed says they are scorpion arms used on many Kyosho 2wds of the time including Scorpion, Tomahawk, Turbo Scorpion, Assault and Advance.
Die casting quality varied a lot...yours look like to be in very good condition and original manufacture...that said they are fairly easily and cheaply available online.
I'm biassed but it looks to me like you have the makings of a tremendous platform for a Kyosho Assault restore/project
I had a bunch of spare parts from my days owning many clods, so I decided to build one. Only parts I purchased were esc, servo and wheels (why are they only available in chrome?).
Old parts on here are Apm chevy bumper, Duratrax v-spike & diamond...

Wow, that came out nice. Always cool when you build something up from basically nothing.
Even though this is technically a buggy, I'm doing a truck conversion with it.
The plan is to build as much of it from my parts/junk boxes as possible. Of what you see here, the transmission ($40 parts trans)and rear control arms are the only...

Lookin' good! At first I thought this was gonna be a straight 10T build but it's more of an old school conversion! I fondly remember the truck conversion wars from bitd. I snapped up an Eagle right when they came out. Looking back on it now, all it...
I would like to thank Rizzo and Scollins for the idea. I've been working on this for about 2 weeks now, mostly waiting for the rear tires off Ebay. It was a very scratched-up chassis, little sanding and cutting added the paint plus spare parts from...

Heres some more paint scheme ideas for u.
U will have to trim the arches a little , I had to on my RC10 as I wanted the body quite low so as to hide the chassis for some more realism, strangley enough it helps the handling having the body as low as...
I was going to start disassemble and clean my 10T when I had a thought. Do I have enough spare parts to put another tub together? The answer of course was yes. It may not be pretty or complete(yet) :D But it has some cool stuff on it.Nothing was...

I haven’t had to buy anything yet. Let’s see how far I can get. :mrgreen:
No plans for electronics yet. I’m just winging it. I’ll get in another hour tomorrow. Always takes me the longest to find parts in my inventory. I will have to...

After a little cleanup, I can tell this chassis used to have a rpm chassis brace and front bumper.
I bought the chassis with turnbuckles, front tower, front arms and top plate. And the wrong chassis plate! It came with a T4/B4 chassis plate and...
I have a ton of parts from auctions I have won over the past several months and being the type of person who can't throw anything away I decided to see if I could put some of them to good use. I have had the two black rear rims for a while and I...

My instruction manual don't have the number you refered to thou, but mine is a Swedish translation so maybe diffrent countries have diffrent systems?...
