Anyone got any info about Daishin?

HI guys, picked up a Daishin Chevrolet Corvair Monza off ebay, it's cleaned up and running now, with it's original radio gear, pretty nippy for an older model, anyone know any thing about them, got any manual's, instructions, boxes or any info at all?

This is mine:

I have the Daishin receiver in my Tamiya Renault Mk.22 Martini F-2 car, this was a friends - I never got the transmitter and wondered what it looked like. Wow that's an old looking transmitter, from reading my old British R/C car magazines, the pre-runner to the current steering wheel / gun transmitter (like we have now) was indeed a transmitter like the one you have, a box with a wheel, the throttle I presume is on the side ? Futaba used to do a transmitter with a wheel on the right and a stick on the left, still a square box arrangement.

Are you sure the car's only from the early 80's ? the front looks a dead ringer for a Tamiya !!! I've tried tracking down Daishin before on the net and found nothing, thanks for showing me the 'interesting' transmitter !!
