I know it's a kyosho, but that is about it. I only know that because it says it on it.

I'm just going to put it up on ebay and see what happens.

It looks offroad with old school HPI Super Radial tires and some kind of rims...

Not sure but looks classic and pointless to get running again lol

Yeah, looks like an Optima with a belt drive conversion, the original was chain. Kinda looks like it was configured to run dirt oval or something.

They can look pretty tough when they're restored. I have fond memories of my old Turbo Optima as a kid.
