Tyco Assassin
Quote from lpj2 on January 9, 2025, 2:09 pmHey all!
Was digging around in my shed and came across my old RC car from when I was a kid. My son is now old enough and would be nice for him to be able to enjoy it as well. I'll have to do some digging for parts but it will need tires as the rubber is cracked and probably a steering assembly as the rear wheels turn but front ones don't turn left/right. Pics attached any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Unsure about the wheels though. As for steering assembly hmm.... I believe the chassis is from the Tyco Hammer. That isn't as rare as the Assassin, but it's still quite an expensive car. You might be able to pick up a busted one from eBay at a reasonable price, but would need a bit of luck I reckon.
Even if you can't fix it, please take care of it, not many around!!
