Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:876254 | Brand: Kyosho |
This car was found by a friend of mine. Neighbor was clearing out garage and was throwing this car away along with a Marui Ninja.
He offered it to me and I have been painstakingly restoring it as time allows over the past year.
I replaced the shock bulkhead, front bumper, shock collars, installed a 540 kyosho motor but will come with an original Mabuchi 540, stripped the original body,... airbrushed the body and driver from the inside, worked hard to save the original decals, it has its original Bridgestone/Kyosho tires, installed a new hobby wing 1060 esc, cleaned up the wiring, fully disassembled-cleaned and lubricated. The car was tested on my driveway with a modern radio and ran perfectly.
It has an upgraded Option House chassis with correct black countersunk machine screws. And all parts purchased other than ESC are kyosho New Old Stock.
*The front shock seals leak over time. The Lexan body is original. The kid that cut it out wasn’t exacting with his cuts. And the body has a few cracks around the nose and on the white below driver**Does not have option house racing clutch any longer just the cover*
I will also provide a new set of tires which cost me $40. they are not originals. Proline spikes for the front and IMEX 1.9 mini spikes on the rear. You can text me any question you like. I photographed the entire tear down and build.
7 small scuffs on the anodized chassis...overall outstanding condition for the age. Tires are original and dry. I wouldn’t run them. They are not glued on. Front wheels have some scuffsRear wheels are very good to excellentRoll cage and Aluminum Roof are very good to excellent Front and rear control arms are almost perfectAluminum on shocks and towers are pristineIt’s ready to run if you have a battery and a radio.Ships fedex ground with insurance from Fort Worth Texas. 817-939-0275 if you need to talk about it.
