First, I'm new here and don't know much about vintage RCs. Thanks :)

I have a handful of RCs I'm trying to identify. This one is a 4WD Tamiya. Any idea what this is? It isn't a blackfoot is it (I have a body for a blackfoot)?
Wheels likely aren't correct.

Thanks.

They made quite a few models with that 4wd layout. It's df01 or TA01 based (chassis code). But it may have been a stadium truck or touring car, they also made them into buggies. The names are escaping me on the short arm cars (which is what you have). The manta ray is a buggy variant

Thanks.

Wheels and tires are from a Marui Hunter or Marui Galaxy RS.
I buy kits to build and ru(i)n them :-)

ID this Sprocket/gear?

Really only curious about this one to know if it's worth throwing on eBay.
Is it a steering "gear"?

Its a common Kimbrough servo saver. I can see the emblem on it.
