I agree with the SPUD-MEISTER! I think one is the Kyosho MID Custom Special with gear diffs and the other was the JG Chassis :thumbsup:which was common at the time. The Mid came out around 1987-88ish and was top of the line. Joel Magic Johnson raced for Kyosho. The weakness of your Kyoshos is the GEARBOX. The Idler gear strips out and gets destroyed because its a manufacturing flaw. You can easily get a repro body off ebay and stickers too! They are missing parts, but expect probably around 100-200USD each.

I have one listed at the moment on ebay gold shocks and the alloy chassis which i was told was an option to run saddles as well. See how that fares for a price guide:thumbsup:

Radnor reckons that the first one used to be CJ's. He had it off CJ and raced it for a bit and then wanted to fit the 6R4 shell to it, but it wouldn't fit so he swapped it for a SWB off Bloss who had originally bought it off Rob! :lol:
