    Description

    Manufactured in Japan around 1973. These race cars bodies are in nice condition & have not been used in almost 50 years. Some decals have slight peeling on some edges. The battery compartments in the cars and in the Radio Control remotes have no corrosion. Cars require 4 c-cell batteries & a 9v battery. Remotes require a 9v battery.
    Car #1 is completely intact. I tested this car & the drive motor works & the rear wheels move & respond to the remote (forward & reverse). There is a second motor that controls the steering - this motor does not run & does not respond to the controller (could be a controller problem or a motor problem).
    Car #2 is missing the front wheels. I tested this car & the drive motor works but the rear wheels do not move. The steering motor does not run & does not respond to the controller (
    could be a controller problem or a motor problem).
    One of the Radio Control remotes is missing its antenna.
    If you like tinkering you should be able to get at least one of these cars working. In the worst case, you will have a beautiful vehicle to display.
