Not the best example ever but much better than when it was received ! Poorly described ebay purchase, the seller was even kind enough to fold the box up for me for shipping !!
Two speed transmission capable of being changed on the move, one-way front wheel bearings which give freewheel under normal conditions and engage when 4x4 is needed, nice touches but not as good as the three speed Tamiya models of the time.
Body pretty poor in places, I guess the seller never noticed that either.
BUT everything considered I'm pleased to own one.

Thanks all, I've had it ages and never got round to putting it on site. I've had a look at the Parma site and there it is ! Food for thought. And there's some other great stuff on there as well, thanks Tim.

These trucks are seriously cool. I would say it's their answer to Tamiya's 3 speeds.
