Nice score! I had one of those when I was 10 yrs old or so. My friend had one of the little F1 cars, also by Kyosho. I think the scale for the F1 was a little bit bigger. He had a big unfinished basement that we used to make a track in. So much fun! The biggest pain in the butt were the e clips holding on the front wheels.

Just picked it up, came in a neat case for easy transport 8) very clean and came with all the original boxes and spares, even uncut decals. I can't wait to get started cleaning it up.

Those are sweet. I really like the Rothmans paintjob. I remember wanting these as a kid and just ran across an ad and review in an old RCCA I was flipping through yesterday.

Proline Baja. I don't know how to create link but it's discussed in the buggy forum under the thread called extended chassis.

Never had an SRB so when I saw this Buggy Champ for cheap, I had to snatch it up.

I quickly sold the gold body and ordered a Scorcher bodyset and front bodypost. Building it up, I added the Tamiya ball diff (not sure why it doesn't come...

Here's a couple spy shots of my latest project.

It's a lightly used B2 that collected dust on a shelf for over a decade.

Way more $$$ than I originally...

Thanks.

That oval looks sweet! :D
