| description | I think any TC member might consider the Grasshopper to be Tamiya's most humble offering, but I don't think I've been more pleased upon receiving a car than this one ... It's clearly used and clearly vintage, but if this car has done anything more than trundle, sedately around someones lawn for the life of one battery, then I'm a monkeys uncle ... ... There are a couple of scuffs here and there, but they'll probably buff out. The rear wheels and tyres don't match the front, the tyres being the thicker edition Super Grippers without the hole. I've washed the shell and wheels since taking the pictures and they've scrubbed up very nicely... Great little car!
Current photos show car after a deep clean (many parts went in the sonic bath) ... Need to repaint the driver and head light detailing ... Repaint the wheels and soften up the tyres a little with silicon ...

Who doesn't love the Grasshopper!?
... Yeah, the car as pictured is straight out box ... I'm really tempted to take for a little spin ...
Very cool and lovely condition! Did it come with the black motor too?
