Hi, Can anyone help me identify this Kyosho?
It was supposed to be a RTR, but is missing some stuff. I just bought it blind, and need to find a pinion. (and other stuff)
(here's to hoping the pics work.)
thanks

you sure it's a kyosho? I would say it's an ultima but I think they have a metal chassis, at least the old ones do...maybe it's a newer style Ultima..

I'm pretty sure it's a Kyosho. It looks similar to an Ultima II, however, I thought those have a flat carbon chassis. This also looks like a Kyosho Triumph. One of the things I noticed is that your car uses more modern style 'A' arm suspension where the arm pivots on a longitudinal pin. The older cars, not just Kyosho, use trailing arm front suspension where the arm pivots on a lateral pin. Any other thoughts?
Also, you can browse www.vintagekyosho.com and see what you come up with. Good luck!
