25 years ago we used to oem hop up parts for Tamiya frogs and hornets from AYK.

Ah yes, back when the ships had some cargo on them for the return trip

Bob, what do you mean, the ships are full of free American grain for Egypt...

Yes, but AYK/Champion Group 20 chassis are a dime a dozen!

Okay, back to the purpose of this thread. "Floppy pan in-lines"... who made this one? AYK too?

[TSR]

This is an REH chassis. I am not sure who did those because the plating over the wire and plate was like tin, and subject to surface corrosion that darkens the metal. They certainly were produced in Japan, but by which company is a little mystery that I will sort rapidly with a simple telephone call...

These inlines are...well... Just Wonderful.


When did the Champion inlines switch from the brass rod drop arms to the stamped brass?

If it has a solid drop arm is it still called a jail door?

Thanks,
Bob
