I saw some vintage 6 pins on ebay the other day are you interested?

I am kind of in two minds myself but am really after the original 4 pin style Deans before they rounded the edges. I just need two!

BTW was that Leisure speed controller ever for off-road cars?

I've got some of the red 4 pin and a very few black 3 pin. I could use a bunch more of either type.

The ESC could be used for off-road, I s'pose. 1980 technology... I'm guessing not the fastest switching thing ever. :wink:

How did you do the new radioplate? Looks very good, like machined?

Someone has paperwork for Leisure cars and ESC, maybe a catalogue?

I have a bunch of new in package Leisure parts, including radio plates, resistors, complete alloy front end assembly,etc. Unfortunately the only "catalog" I have is what's listed on the header cards...which are fairly comprehensive, printed on both sides.

I'll dig this car back out, it's had a few more updates and I need to hang some more new parts on. I ended up replacing the Jomac diff with an older MRP setup, which is a little more interesting...

What I try to find out is how much different Leisure 1/12th cars had been sold and when exactly. I think the original Leisure 100 was in 1978 and the 100SS two years later. But I´m not sure if all of this is correct.

Then the Leisure ESC. I think there had been the first one in maybe 1980 and a rev. 2 one year later. But again I´m not sure as I have not found very much informations. That´s why I´m looking for a catalogue scan or something like this.
