Please help identify this model "Tamiya" or not?

Recommended Posts

Hello et-all I need the power of the hive mind on this one. (newbie knowledge and google are not cutting it)

Was given this 10+ years go and the first time we ran it managed to crack the front upright so assigned to the loft it went. As a chassis it feels fairly well built 4wd possibly belt drive? with old school mechanical speed controller. I think the body shell may be a red-herring as is feels cheap and flimsy for a tamiya one (sorry still assuming this could be a tamiya).

And what is the possibility of getting parts for it hub/upright, bumper , front skid plate etc... 

Thanks

Thanks for the replies gents.

Looks like parts are not easily had... (another reason for buying a 3d printer i do not need)

Hmm strip for spares - repair - sell on?

@ArAKern2 What did you end up doing with this model? 

Some parts definitely were sold seperately for the Dandy Dash. They are actually beautiful buggies too. Every inch the equals of late 1980s Tamiyas. 

Totally worth restoring with a parts car, if you can’t find the missing bits alone. IMHO.
