This car was made by T&A Machine, given to me after they accidentally destroyed my irreplaceable Hyperdrive during gas-conversion prototype testing (radio interference by some kid with a Radio Shack toy truck). I don’t know a lot here, like whether this is another prototype, what brand the chassis is (probably Associated), and I no longer recall the Prafa engine displacement. Not helpful. But it will make a good, ultra-inexpensive way to make a start with gas-engine cars. The engine turns but is gummed from old fuel. I have never tried to run it myself. Needs to be cleaned out. Pull-start cord, and centrifugal clutch. The foam tires are aged and must be replaced. Includes Futaba steering and throttle servos, and the 4AA battery holder has corroded contacts and should be replaced or at least filed clean. I’m including a spark plug wrench and an old but never used Hobbico Hot-Shot glow plug heater with wall charger. Does it work? I don’t know that either.
