Re: My Maxxum FF

Thanks, some great input there :)
I love the way it's engineered, a nice piece of vintage kyosho.
Anyone knows where to find a rear spoiler for this?

My Maxxum FF

Another find in the local ads. Pretty much unused, unpainted original body and totally complete aside from the rear wing. It's a really odd chassis design and I can't imagine it being fast on the track ;) http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/150x100q90/537/4MVbht.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/150...

My Willys wheeler

Hi guys! Found this in a local ad. Pretty much complete and undamaged. It's missing a scoop on the bonnet and the J2-part is broken, as usual on this chassis :( Really love the tire thread. And there is the usual dilemma. The paintwork is horrific but fixing it means I have to sacrifice the nowhere ...

Re: Marui samurai gearbox is rough

Thanks for the input General! Got it working now. It was some bearings that fit over some small tubes (very tight fit) that seized when fitted without a little bit of margin sideways. Can't explain better, only have manual in Japanese so I don't know what the parts are called;) Thanks for pushing th...

Marui samurai gearbox is rough

My latest restoration project is a samurai, but I'm stuck at the gearbox assembly. Can't get it to turn smoothly. Everything is cleaned, in good shape and ballbearings are fitted. As soon as I try to tighten the screws that hold the casing together it pretty much seizes. At least the axle where the ...

Manual for 4runner/terrano/pathfinder?

Hi guys!
MY latest restoring project is a EP 4runner. Found an exploded view pic, but would really like to see a complete manual.
Anyone know where to find one?

Re: My AYK Super Trail 566B

Thank you guys! It really was a find. It was the condition of the car that made me happy. Would have paid double or triple (or even more) for a 566B in this state.
I´m really a box art kind of guy, but with this it wasnt easy to find box art :wink:

My AYK Super Trail 566B

Hi! Thought I should share this find with you guys. Bought it for about $60 just before christmas. It came 100% complete (radio box not in pics) along with unpainted original body. Quite a rare find! I´m far too unpatient to take pics during restoration so I only have pics of the finished car. Not c...

Sweet! Kits are supposed to be built!
How is the quality of the different plastic parts compared to the fox?
