Hi Guys
Thanks for allowing me to join your group. I have an old Sprint car that I want to identify. I suspect that it might be a Moody but due to it being 1/10th scale, I am not so sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. I have found out a little more about this car. Built by a man called Terry Plummer who made these back in the 80's. Mfg approx 500 of them. Most went out to California. American racing models. Aluminium tub, brass roll cage, styrene body. Most had Bolink motors. They were powered with 4 or 5 cell niCad batteries and the charging resistor was in the nose. They came with a charge cord plugged into a cigarette lighter-type outlet, however, most guys had their own primitive chargers.
That was decades ago. Terry took out a full-page ad, and the car was featured in an RC Car Action magazine edition. He doesn't remember what issue, though. He sold cars to Rich Vogler, Gary Stanton, Chuck Gurney, Dale Blaney, Rick Ferkel, Leland McSpadden, Mike Gregg, and many others.
