I am looking for information on an old buggy that I owned and sold many years ago. It was glow powered, with the engine out back. It used a yellow nylon pull starter that had teeth on it. It never ran good, but when it did it was great! Looking to find out what it was to recapture my youth! May have been a Kyosho Assault. I would have bought it around 1988 or so. Any info would be great!

Yep, Kyosho assult I bet, I had one too, always wanted to wheelie and wouldnt turn under power with the engine hanging out the back.

Right?? Had a starting cone on the back of the engine also

That is the one! The thing would only do a wheely in the grass! Very hard to start with that yellow thing...

Mine would wheelie all over, hard to turn in gravel because there was not enough weight on the front tires, I started mine with an airplane starter off the back end.

Pretty cool old car, kinda like building a heli.
