Looks like a Bolink, but I couldn't say which model.

Huh, I didn't even notice that. I'm guessing it was re-built backwards by accident. I doubt they would put the spur on that side, but you never know. That thing would fly in reverse though!

looks like something advanced engineering would've built in the mid/late 80's.

as for the gear on the left side, being as though it some sort of drag car, it was probably designed like that to have the motor behind the rear axle for weight transfer. it's easy to change the rotation of a modified motor, so it's no big deal.

it's pretty cool looking. quite a bit of 12e/12i parts on it.

I have a question. Does anyone think those decals on the front fender are a little overkill? ( Or is it just me? )

They may be overkill, but I love the RCRC stickers on it...I would venture to say most people knew that track as Ascot.

I would agree the RCRC decals are fine. I would kill those decals on the front fender and leave the hood scoop and the door decals :?:
