I had a friend that was into classic volvos. The thing that I remember about them was that the shifter was located under the dash and bent back, alot like a civic si-r.
One of the requirements to get on this board is to list your first RC car in your details. It's interesting to see what people list. So here is your chance to tell your story.
Mine was a Tamiya Frog that I got a few days before my 13th birthday. I...
