It looks pretty modified in a home made sort of way. Closest possibility I think is a raco gn. There was a pbs car which looked almost identical to the raco. The rear portion of this car is different,, but by the pic, I would say its user modified.

Yep I notice the car has different shaped bumper. I found it is a RACO Sidewinder but have not found one to look exactly the same.

I cleaned it up some

HI!... O.k I picked up a crap load of RC stuff from a LHS that is going out of business. Most stuff was just thrown into boxes. There's a bunch of stuff I don't know what they are or what car they are from. So let's see all the knowledgeable guys help me out here... :mrgreen:

This body?

These MSC's ?

Image

This prop shaft?

Image

This?

Image

Image

These suspension arms?

Any help on identifying these parts would be greatly appreciated. :)

That's no excuse.


The shaft and Kyosho SH-7 part are from a Shadow. So are the arms.
