Not my thing, 80s production? I would hazard a guess. From the dark ages.
In a search I found this. Not the same but thinking of a similar time period ?

Whatever it is, it looks like mid-90's. Champion C-can motor.
Resembles CHampion magnum 12, but that had round holes in the center.

I'm not familiar with the chassis.
On a long shot, maybe Bando/Jim Banderski (was he Yeti?).
Most likely a medium/small production item.

Bill, how do you do it? It's a dead ringer. I never came across one like this . I quit for most of the 90's but, this (I think) was out of style by the flexible revolution.

Martin, definitely not a Champion or Parma brass car(I have those).
Racer products? Import?
Definitely not a REH. Who does that leave?
Jk started with scorpions or cheetahs. Never saw it in a Eagle or REH catalog mid 20's.

Someplace I saw a second one, with a name, but can't find it now. Maybe from Texas? Could have been on OWH or one of the other BBS that no longer exists. Someday I'll check my hard copy file to see if it was something I kept.

Martin,IDK, I thought I saw them all. All (2) two of them.
Champion and Parma. It's a production product. Maybe limited, like Mike said, but production none the less.

I still got 6" of paper to look through. The first 10" didn't reveal anything.
