Playtron Mercedes Benz 500K - multiplex

Here it is, my first RC car ever, i got it as Christmas present in 82 from my father. I loved to look at it since i've never been able to run it more than 2/3 mins.... :) I was only 10 at that time and i wasn't able to set the carburator of the little 1,5 cc motor properly, i finished to sell it after 1 year of try and changed it for a NIB WW1!!! For that time they were very high-tech with an electric self starter with heat glow that uses the receiver and servos battery pack!! They were distributed in Germany by Multiplex and only the Mercedes 500k version not the Viva Arizona frame buggy.
I never saw another one in my life, and even on Ebay they are very difficult to find. I found it in Germany, needs some attentions on the transmission and a body shell. I'll try to have it running again (now i'm able to set it.....).
If anyone has info to share about it, i really appreciate.
A little update, now i got the manual with a bunch of spares!! :) Bye WWD :)


NOTE: Anyone that need help/advice about this car or just have something related with it feel free to email me, i'm always available. I can also help with spares.
