Awsome transamman908 youv'e got a really rare ride. I noticed that the speed control has the 2 old style wiper arms which you don't see that often anymore. This looks like it could be run right now if you charged the batteries. Very cool. 8) 8) :) :mrgreen:

Very nice! (even without the fiberglass battery straps...) Extra points for using the Rx battery holder. 8)

That's some serious eye candy right there. :shock:

Did you have the pleasure of building that one yourself or did you find it that way?

Thanks everyone! The old sanyo pack does hold a charge!!! I have the original body, wing, box and everthing that came extra with the kit. I had the fiberglass batt. straps, but can't find them(i'm ready to gut the house to find them..LOL!) Many thanks to all for the nice comments!!More pics to come when i do the body for it. :D

great car, dude. :)

i've never understood the need to drill 2 holes further front on the chassis to mount the msc, when you can just flip the brackets around, add a couple bends, and use the stock mounting points. i've had/have a couple like that.

I put a body on my Edinger. I found an old can of orange that's pretty close to box art then made the ROAR stickers with regular sticker paper with clear packing tape over them(cheesy, but doesn't look half bad). This will do for now till i get myself to do the original body and take the original wing and buttons outa the pack.

So does somebody on this forum have a list of the tire specs? I have an early car (spring caps, glass batt strap, long wing tubes, etc) with no writing on the side walls of the tires, front and rear. Is this common?
Thanks, Brian
P.S. sorry if this has been covered a hundred times already - in 1985 I had an early car and didn't even know it :-)
