lorrylemming Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Its running an aircraft nitro engine (prop nose cone), so that makes it very old. Any branding on the servos or rx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landmaxdriver Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Its running an aircraft nitro engine (prop nose cone), so that makes it very old.

x-baja man-x Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 i dont think it is the hornet as it is electric and im sure about a sprint car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo_SSR Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 i dont think its the hornet but does resemble it id reckon its a tamiya tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voo2doo Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Thats a Kyosho I'm sure. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xnitrorc Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 have to say i have not seen one like that before guessing kyosho or tamiya looks that sort of model look after it though vintage could be worth more money in the future or now than you expect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-D-L-88 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 tamiya hot shot shocks? could be a tamiya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R46 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 you guys just punting anything now not a tamiya, don't think is kyosho but not ruling out, more on lines of a thunder tiger from around challenger 83/ silver fox era looking into it for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo_SSR Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 wouldnt mind seeing it run tho, looks like it could have potential sport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
