_4-0_ 0 Posted April 10, 2008 Hi. i'm trying to track down a Nikko RC car I had when I was very young. All I remember is that it was quite small, 1/18 i recon. It looked like a little 4x4 pickup with a removable rear cover. The best thing about it though was it had a built in winch and it could pull itself up walls and all kinds. Does anyone remember this or is it only me? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hibernaculum 933 Posted April 12, 2008 Hmm. Nikko made a few Toyota Hi-Lux models. Earlier ones were often red or blue, and had small (scale sized) wheels and were 1/16 scale. They also had a removable canopy. Trouble is that I don't think I've come across one with a working winch on it. But here's an example anyway... cheers, H.
