Kyosho stock car Added pictures

Post by bearrickster »

The same little shop I got my pro-x from also has a NIB On Road car that looks like a Formula-1 racecar. it looks like a F1 but it come's with a stock car body? if anybody wants it I can pick it up for you he wants around 200.00 for it but its still sink rapped new!! the chassis looks like this?

I think I have seen that in their mini catalogs : there's a 1/12th... Buick?
I have never seen what's under that shell, but the wheels sure look like the ones on most pan-cars

When kyosho came out with their on road series (ultima based cars), they also released some open wheel models. My buddy had the penzoil car. Kyosho also had a full bodied toyota GTP on this chassis.

I don't recall ever seeing a stockcar version with this chassis. The only stock car I remember them releasing was the Lumina that was based on the slingshot chassis.

They also had a Target car, but that was a couple years later.

the 1/12 kit is number 3054 : Buick stocker
I have it in the mini-catalog of sept 1990 (french version)
Looks pretty mean 8)

The penzoil F1 car... I assembled one for a friend; but that thad a gearbox based on an ultima's internals; not direct drive as Rick pictures. Then, around 95 there was the impress F1 which rembles the picture about as much as any F1 of that time.

Rick how close is that picture; just similar or is that a picture of the same chassis, just, less new???
For 200 I'd say leave it in the shop: no way you'll make a profit on it after adding the shipping cost.

That's cause Kyosho kits aren't shrink wrapped...you can open up the box. We use to tape the boxes shut in our shop for security purposes.

Thanks for posting these pics Rick.

I have never seen this car before. I wonder if it was a kyosho US product or especially developed by Japan for the US market

Apologies, it was listed last year, not clear if it sold, I was hoping a NZ guy on here might be registered to contact him, or find out?
