Great thanks for that, because I really searched for, but couldn't find it.
Only in an actual american ebay-auction I found yesterday the same combination of front and rear axle called as an Associated but I couldn't believe that.

Now I have a pretty good info, thanks a lot.

Great work by tomoplus, I knew I recognised it, but couldn't quite remember why... I used to have one of these, new built... here's a picture:

Thank's to you klavy69 !

Still, the carbon parts (which I suppose are CML production )
The center shafts and front diff pulley (I bet on Tomy parts)
and the bearing steering (which seems to be a GPM one)

I don't know for a fact, but the weave in the carbon parts remind me of some FibreLyte Cat 2000 EC parts I used to have.... the chassis looks a *bit* like the Yok 870C chassis http://www.fibre-lyte.co.uk/fl/cars/yokomo/870c.html, and the front shock tower looks like a YZ10 Works part (http://www.fibre-lyte.co.uk/fl/cars/yokomo/yz10works.html, part WORKS03.... albeit both with slightly different holes.

Phil.
I´ve got a set of the front arms - They were in a bag with a headercard from MMS.
IIRC, also referred to as "Drescher" arms

Second lot are definitely kyosho...maybe from their more budget range of buggies.

I would say last lot do look like schumey, maybe from a cougar?

have a peg on the shock body and adjustable notches for spring spacing

I didn't even see the slight yellow/orange tint on the bodies until I looked at the pictures, so maybe these are color stripped...

C-hubs look like Kyosho Optima to me.

Chassis parts, Fibre Lyte?

Optima C-Hubs and Optima steering blocks or compatibles should be used with those Drescher arms in Yokomo.
