Genuine Reedy, I have many of them like that that how they were modified back then.
Have a nice day! :)

None of the parts are Delta, also the marking is different. I know of a car which was using similar rear axle blocks, but not exactly the same. But I have no clue what the parts are.
Maybe it´s better posting at the vintage 1/8 thread.

Thanks Gunther,
I suppose you mean the Delta Dash II, when you are referring to a car with similar bearingblocks?
Kind regards, Mick

The mega motors came with the USA1
The super stock 34 came with the Outlaw Ultima

The sapphire and monster horsepower did not come stock with any kit

Ok guys, I need some help again. I'm looking for this motor. 30 years degrades my memory. We use to call them "Green Labels". I think it's a 280, or 380. Maybe 27 turns? It has a closed endbell. I know they had yellow and red labels. The reds were really hot if I remember. But; can someone tell me what this is so I can try and find one please. Sorry the pic is not any bigger, or better.

AFAIK, the Mega Motor also came with a variety of Kyosho kits such as the Lazer Sport. Is it because one of those in the picture is reverse-rotation and the other is normal rotation that they belong to the USA-1?

The text on the label spells out "Bolink" (upside down).

The mega motors shown are the long can variation (360 monster truck), I don't recall those coming with any other kit. There was a mega outlaw stock 22x1 that may have came with kits

Not a Delta, so also no Dash. Indeed the parts are similar type than the hangers used by Delta, but even Dash parts are looking different. Also that logo never was used by Delta.
Actually I thought of Taurus or one of the very old European cars in the beginning but it´s seems neither of them.
I think it´s an American car but I´m really not sure which one.

Yes it's a guage for setting toe. Old school, the newer setup boards do toe, camber, caster etc.
