Thanks it does appear to be a Kyosho Elvolva. I believe its a 2005 WC Team Edition. It has the alloy fronts and the same top plate for the chassis. Thanks for the help guys!

So I got this fella in kind of a bundle with a car and some other parts.
He's just been sitting around.
I've tried to identify him with no luck.
Looks like, maybe, a 1/8 scale (6 1/2" tall) ??stunt driver??
Motorcycle? Go cart?
Any thoughts?

These shocks came on a Kyosho XRT roller that I am rehabilitating. The rears are an eye to eye of 115mm, fronts come in at 100mm. The bodies are 14mm ( 13.8 ) OD and have rubber boots, so I'm inclined to think they are from a 90's 1/8 buggy. Does anyone recognize them?

I´d say those shocks would be from an Inferno 777 perhaps from an ST-R

Looks to be set up for a CC Lynx 2 rear end, but with a Asso. 10L front end.

They look like adapters to run Yokomo wheels on pin-drive axles.

I'm kinda thinking 1/10 pan car wheels because of the hub size and screw spacing. But it is a pic, and without a ruler by it.....

Oh, and for the rc10 1/4" axles.
