Ishipla Monster shocks - about the release, I would say early eighties.
Body is Hornet copy and the chassis looks like a mashup between a Scorpion and a Hornet.
I´ve those shocks on my Scorpion fibreglass build.
Thanks Dennis!

dammit I never know these postings and finally I know one ...and it turns out a small detail crushed my hopes.
Why do I get the feeling these parts are going to show up on ebay shortly?

There is double sided tape on one side and a place for a zip tie on the other. I'm guessing it was to angle a servo to a chassis for a pan car.
Probably made by Exoite Option in the early 80’

Ahh! Cool...much earlier pieces than I expected for same application in different cars
Your probably right about that, but it won't be shortly. I have no interest in these parts and would rather get them to someone who needs/wants them. I'll don't plan to post them to eBay yet. Would rather try the forums first, I'm not a huge fan of eBay and their policies.
