white and blue are the same Kyosho car. 4wd, no clue what make. white is a roller, blue is almost complete. the speed controllers are all fried. some melted others the wires are hacked apart... so i assume they are dead. the radio has a price tag of $99 from redlinehobby in regina and is a FM radio. I assume the blue car would go with some TLC.

I remember drooling over these in the Tower Hobbies catalog, when I was a kid, about mid-teens. These came out in the late '80s, I think. Belt drive, mid mounted motor, with 4WD.

The white body actually is off a newer Kyosho 2wd buggy that was nitro powered and had a pull starter, but I can't remember the name off hand.
