Interesting restored item on Ebay I spotted tires included but no body. Rear end reminds me of the Stinger but I don't know Kyosho stuff. As of 10 hours to go on the auction the hi bid was 12 bucks.

This is very nice. Condition is almost perfect, easily worth USD$300++.

I don't agee on it being anywhere near similar to the stinger but if it re-appears and you like it, grab it. I'm sure you can finsome foam wheels to fit, and marwan did the body some time ago.

Looks more like a Kyosho Assault.

a big one then: the assault being 1/10 and this 1/8

I've seen a similar car once in a lhs and 1/8 buggies back then look a lot bigger than they are now. Pretty funny as 1/10 on the other hand seems to have evolved exactly the opposite way.
Is this just my impression?
