Yeah, it's the 1/8 scale Associated RC500 2WD, with that unique front shocks layout... Dun think anyone runs them anymore..

looks like it has the optional graphite chassis. Still have a few parts and associated crank 6 port ronnie motors for that car.

The Paris OPS engine? That a legendary Engine! One of the best in it's time!

Don't mention it.... There is a 4WD and 2-Speed conversion kit for this way back then. But dun know whether anyone have them anymore in stock now.

sounds like a fast car in its time. did someone mean they have the motor for this car?

I already found the 4wd conversion, the 4wd chassis and the gears, bearings and driveshafts. so far.

thanks for the intrest

A World Champion in it's time! This is one of the last true RC car! Where more hands-on experience is needed for building it. I believe some dremeling and filing is needed to fit in the conversion kit. Well, Enjoy building your kit!........
