WTB: Kyosho Nostalgic series on road cars: nitro or electric, new or used
Looking to buy Kyosho Nostalgic Series cars made in the mid 90's, in either nitro or electric. There are a few different cars in this series including a couple different Cobras, MGB, corvette and GT40 to name a few. PM if you have something and I can provide an email or cell to send pics if needed.
Thanks

Not the nostalgic series....but
Looking to sell my 1/0 KYOSHO Lancia Delta Integrale 16V r/c Car. This is Kit No. 3044 from the Kyosho 1/10 True Scale series.
This car was made in the '80s. It has a wheelbase of 280mm and the body is 240mm wide at the fenders. Much bigger than the Tamiya Lancia Delta ! To give you an idea of the size..the wheels on the car are HPI Super Star Wheels (2.2" diameter) and the tires are Tamiya TGX 1/8 Rally Blocks.
I started building it about 3 years ago, but just couldn't find the time to finish it! It does not come with the GS engine or the clutch system or any packaging. I was planning to convert it to electric.
The wheels and tires are not the originals but they are new. I used sealed ball bearings instead of the bushings from the kit. It has three diffs (front, rear and center) that Kyosho assembled with the kit, these I opened up and replaced all the bushings with bearings as well. The belts are also new as well from ToughRacing.
The front grill is a separate assembly which is still sealed in the pack as I haven't yet painted the body. The body no longer has the overspray film but is in excellent condition. The decals are repros from a vintage Kyosho seller in the UK.
Here is the build thread from when I started to build it....it's been sitting in a cupboard since...

Nice looking Lancia Delta, but not really the body style I'm hoping for. Thanks for letting me take a look at it Prestonlal.
