Got a kit of an ABC Hobby 1/12 car some time ago. The black bag was typical for their kit´s and could be used as a race bag afterwards. Unfortunately this is another incomplete kit as most of my cars lately. Beside the body and tires it seems at least all of the diff gears are missing, also the wheel nuts for the quick release front wheels. Anyway I always did like the look of this car so glad to find this. Hope to build the kit soon. Actually I know the name of the car but I will be interested who also knows this car.

I love these bodies, way better looking than TOJ or any 1:!2 body after TOJ. The best lookings are propably at Kyosho boxarts and I think Corally used Kyosho bodies on their own boxarts as well.

I love these abc cars. By far the most innovative 1/12 cars in the 80s. I love the 4wd sparks, too bad it was design without any front suspension... But the chassis are such a piece of art!!
