My shinsei 1/25 scale diecast r/c truck and trailer
here is one of my other r/c trucks i completely forgot about until i recently noticed it sitting behind some boxes on the shelf .i got so caught up in the tamiya builds i guess.this truck i got from a toy show many years ago .it had toy electronics in it and i got it upgraded to hobby grade electrics.this make is from the 70's and i remember as a kid wanting one so bad.fast forward to some years ago i finally got one.for a toy it has great details obviously modelled after the Peterbilt 359..the cab/bunk ,trailer are diecast the rest is plastic.yamiya must have got the idea from this for the landing gear because you push down on a button on the trailer and the landing gear pushes down and locks in the down position.you back the truck up and it goes into bull gear when you back up ,you hook up to the trailer and when you go to pull away the kingpin snaps forward and the landing gear pops up and you drive away.i had it out hear recently for these pics and i heard a snap in the rear end .pulled it apart and one gear is cracked so it is "in the shop" i will replace the gear and it will be back on the road...lol

Very cool! You need a loader or dozer to haul on it and we need some video!
Any pictures of the electronics install? Jim |
