I was given this car by a friend, and was he thought it might have been a tamiya one. I measured it up and realised it was 1/8th scale. So I did a little research and some kind fellows on Tamiyaclub were able to tell me that its a Aoshima Skynet FJ40 body. Aoshima made a complete RTR 1/8 scale car, discontinued some years ago. The body is fairly detailed and is apparently sort after by crawling enthusiasts.
Very cool. Do you still have it? Are you, just in case, interested in selling it?
still have it yes, the plan is to put it on either a Tamiya Bruiser or some other crawler chassis.
