Two vintage cars for sale, both in generally good condition considering their age. Very well loved and maintained over the years and both in full working order and run recently with no problems at all.
Firstly an original Tamiya Hotshot 4WD, original wheels and tyres, a few of the normal scratches underneath but all minor. It currently has an MG brown dot motor fitted (one of the best standard class motors of its time) original motor as well if you want it but not tested this, and the only thing non original on it is the rear heat diffusers (see pic) - the old ones are included but no longer work although perhaps someone with more knowledge could restore these. This car is in generally very good condition for something 25 years old and only has a few minor scuffs etc here and there as expected. Acoms techniplus radio gear is included, the only thing you need to run this is a 7.2v battery and transmitter batteries.
£80

Next up, a Kyosho Ultima 2WD. Again runs well, and used recently, and also in generally good condition. Upgraded items include a Kyosho Super 34 motor (again one of the better standard class motors of the time), original motor can be included as well if desired but not tested, Hi-Tec speed controller, ball races fitted throughout, new wheels and tyres shown fitted, but original rims included plus front tyres, spare aluminium under tray included - used, and assorted odds and ends. This car has again been well looked after and is about 20 years old. The only non original parts are the top part to the chassis which was plastic but cracked, it was not possible to source this part at the time so a custom aluminium part was made - see pic, also one of the battery restraints is missing, and the clips to adjust the spring tension have cracks near the adjuster screws - a design fault on this model. radio gear is included but the transmitter has seen better days, still works fine but tape is holding the battery cover on.
£70

Also have a 7.2v battery which is a new 2000 ma/h Ni/mH, only used once, and charger, £20 for both.
