As above really!
I have found someone who is remaking the very rare Kyosho RS500 one that came out around 1991.
He is also considering making a Saph Cossie one too depending on how well the RS500 sells, or depending on demand.
I have told him I am posting on here to see what sort of interest there is.

This is a 1/12th one that he did for Mardave cars, the Kyosho one is better IMO (I used to have one when they came out)



Please put your name down (cut & paste list) if you are interested and state which one(s) you would buy.

 

hi mate, i am interested in the RS500, i have the EsCos but an RS500 would be cool as well, If he is doing one in 1/10 scale, then let me know how much, is there holes in it for mounting or can he do it without so i can fit it myself?

cheers

 

I would guess they are done without any holes so they can be used on a wide range of chassis

 

awesome, how much roughly?

 

No idea yet to be honest, but the stuff he does at the mo varies between 10-35 quid or so.

These are some of his others:







Loads of others and the auctions to buy the ones above at:

well tell him im def interested in the RS500 in 1/10 scale please.

 

wow they are well cool, if you got that cavavan and had a Esc cos shell you could recreate martin hadlans top speed cavavan pull

Thats the one he is basing the copies on
Brings back some memories, the exact one I had in 1991!

 

I'd prefer an Escos but dont actually know what scale mine is off the top of my head!

It's a Mk1 shape scooby atm lol

 

I'd be interested in both the 500 and the saph mate

I found that site accidently the other day and was thinking about trying to contact him about making some saph's.

 

I'd have one if it would fit my 1/10 Tamiya RC

 

You can already get Tamiya 1/10th Escos shells

 

That actually looks pretty sweet Martyn, IIRC I bought my RC off Steviecossie off here, don't for some reason think mine is 1/10th

Where can I get that from, direct from Tamiya?

 

interested in saph one

 

Best to try and find a local model shop that can order it in, 99.9% of em all deal in Tamiya

 

Dont want to be the bearer of bad news. but the Kyosho shell wont fit 1/10 scale cars

 

thats my EsCos, bit battered now, was on here the other day, might make a mould of it the vacuum form a new one after i have fixed the cracks, then repaint it metallic

Why? The Kyosho one was 1/10th

 

if its a 1/10 shell then why not?

 

I've just bought the Focus WRC'02 shell prepainted

There is an awesome red one somewhere on Tamiyaclub too

 

Its a bigger shell

 

And how do you know mine isnt a bigger chassis

 

Dont want one anyway so back at ya

 

i would be up for one. I would buy a RC car just to have it, lol.

 

Is there anything available shell wise for for the Kyosho 1/8 scale landmax rally cars?

 

Toppy, could you give us the measurements from the outside of the arches across the car, and from the middle of them front to back?

 

Will sort when i find a tape messure

 

i would be very very interested as i still race rc cars at national level

 

I remember them being called "Super 10 scale" or something like that, thats why they are slightly bigger

 

The kyosho was know as the super 1/10 scale or something

 

indeed they are much wider

 

if you mate is going to remake them is he going to remake them in the propper 1/10th size or super 1/10th ?

 

No idea to be honest, I would guess hes just doing to do them the same

 

damn... dont think ill bother super sized 1/10th's suck ass

 

That Focus looks the absolute nuts, prefer that to an Escos!

 

tell him im def interested in the RS500 kyosho shell cheers!

Mine at the moment but its desperate for some Blue oval shells
Its off the road at the moment as I managed to bent the front driveshafts I wish real cars where as easy to fix, front end drive shaft kit from Tamiya is £5.99 seen some Titanium kits on ebay japan for £20 but fook that!
