Vintage Gar RC score

[3illmesmart]

Not even sure what it is yet. Spotted an aluminium frame on Marketplace and asked if the motor was gas.
I am now the owner of some sort of our Gas RC History.

Mitsubishi TL26 engine. 3 carbs, 1 is supposed to be new.
Some, I'm sure, pretty old but good looking HiTec servos

Kinda looks like one of those old kyosho rigs ?. Good score if you didnt pay much for it. Did it come with a body?

Sean i forget who had one here but I just looked it looks like a kyosho ARC

that's a traxxas monster buggy

 

[Rep732]

Just checked that out Z...you may be onto something

 

[Z.hb71]

I know I'm right ?

 

[3illmesmart]

Everything I got is in photo. I'm starting to think it's a franken-build.

 

[Rep732]

Its interesting and has potential. The engine looks like a homelite

 

[Z.hb71]

Doubt the engine is original but it's 100% a monster buggy imo, even has traxxas servos

 

[3illmesmart]

Rear end and engine set-up seems legit. Does this mean anything? FG been making cars since?

 

[Z.hb71]

Fg has been around for years.

[Seandonato73]

There you have it. Good on you Zed. Never even knew traxxas made anything like that.

I has no idea Traxxas made large scale gas RC. I looked online and could not find anything.....
