This is one of the toughest AYK on-roads to find. It's also one of the lightest 1/12 4WD cars I've had in my hands. It weighs next to nothing and is chain driven 4WD. This was a total restoration. The 'before' picture is shown last. Fortunately I had some original spare parts but I had to CNC the bottom fiber plate. The bottom chassis is CNC machined to exact manufacturer specifications. I used all flat black carbon fiber without the weaves showing to give it a more realistic vintage look. Now I just have to find a suitable body for it. I'm just happy I finally picked one of these up! Woohoo! :)

Where are you finding all these little treasures? Or do I want to know? Nice one, as usual. And, I try not to let my weaves show either.

Very nice Restoration, don't let OSHA see that chain, the'll have you putting some guards on that before someone gets hurt!

This one is also known as the 'Quattro' - this is the later of two versions of the car.....VERY sweet little rides! Nice Job !

Good point Darryn - the Quattro was released in 1984. The CX4WDi followed in 1985. I have a couple of Quattros (for some reason they were not as tough to find). One is in my showroom here: [Click here]
