I found this beauty a few months ago at a local hobby shop. It had TRC foams on it when I found it. Not a scratch on it! Looks like it was just ran on carpet and not much. It came with the box (team car #6036), instructions, Ko Propo EX-1, Tekin 410S, Tekin BC 100L charger, B&R stock motor and two trinity SCR 1400s. It also had the receipt from 1990 for $654.00.
I haven't done anything to it yet, just threw the LOHAS wheels on to see how they looked.

(Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.)
Thanks.The LOHAS rims in this style are part a 5 set run and they have a nickle plated outer rim. They plan to release another style that they will have more sets available.

Thanks Emerson,
They are Schmacher CAT tires. I'll see if I can find the part numbers and I'll let you know. The five star wheels turned out great, can't wait to see the other style!

This is not for mass release wheel. So you can not find another one.
You should make them available Emerson, I personally like these much better than the others.
Hope all is well.
Dear Jay,
Thank you!
If you know the whole story, you will know how tough for me to work out this. And why the release schedule is keeping delay.
However, I'm fighting with my OEM. I will try to make it for mass production. But not nickle plating anymore. And the rim design will be changed as well.

I went to my local hobby shop today to pick up some paint for my crawler body and to see if they might have any old AE parts. After looking around, I see a big cardboard box filled with bodies and marked 20% off. To my surprise, sitting right on top...

Well, not exactly local hobby shop. I drove about 40 minutes to get there, but it was worth it. I saw a shop with old stuff up on ebay, and found out it wasn't far away. So, I drove up and came back with this. Not the greatest score in history, but...

yeh, but until i found this place, well, you get the picture.
This is a really shitty thing that happened in my home town the other day. Someone drove into the LHS (literally) and stole thousands of dollars of stuff. It's the only hobby shop in the province, besides another small one focused on primarily...

Time to get some concrete barriers installed...like at embassies.
