Just bought a vintage associate car and was wondering what it was.

Hello.
I'm new to the RC world. As a kid, I built models, flew rockets, raced slot cars, but never put together the cash to get an RC. But now I'm a dad and I've been waiting for my son to be old enough for an RC. I've done a lot of reading but...

Hello everyone,
