Uncle Bob saved the day. Love the originality of this thing

Hey Jeremy, you did a wonderful job on the Kyosho Raider, a little upgrade is a good thing, the newer electronics are a blessing. Great that Uncle Bob was able to help you with the front bumper and front end. Hope you get it out and enjoy it.

The rain has been a challenge im in my jeep at a hotel sitting in the rain now hoping it stops so we can vist Kentuckys beautiful parks cool restoration Jeremy

Great work Jeremy. Look at that lovely Le Mans Motor! Glad my gearbox video was helpful. You need to get a way of securing the battery pack otherwise it will slide right out from under the body shell. You have to run this in the summer series! Just for the beautiful gearbox sound 😎

great channel with excellent content. 9:08 and like 16 from me my friend . you have my support

Looks great, Uncle Bob’s bumper makes it look way better love the Raider one of my first RCs!

Glad it is all up and running. Bob is a great guy and is always quick to offer up help if he can! I am glad he was able to hook you up with the new bumper, it looks so much much better now! For the windows, you can make templates for the sticker by cover the the windows with blue painters tape and pressing it into the corners firmly, then trace around the window openings with a pen. Once you have the template then you can pick up a sheet of black vinyl from the craft store, stick your templates on there and cut them out to fit. You can put the vinyl right over the window and cut it out with a hobby knife but those thin older bodies I prefer to not cut anything on them as they are usually pretty thin to avoid making weak spots. Have fun with it and I really hope the weather cooperates with you and can get out and run it!

That's awesome Jeremy, I've never had a Kyosho and always like them. Looks like fun and Bob and his wife are amazing! Buggies are just cool 😎👍🏼

Love to see the old kits, especially the Raider, still have mine original box and all !

Looks much better good deal with the bumper. It's funny they call them a gear box but this buggy actually has a gear box that really looks like a box! Have fun running it if it ever stops raining!

You'd done a great job on it. Time to take it out😊

Wow sweet!!! Looks so nice!! And Bob super cool donation to project!

Fun addition to the fleet! 👍👍

good work mate and well done uncle bob 😊👍

Yup she looks good brother. I am with you on the old Speed controls. Yeah they were good back in the 80's but they defintely had their issues. Nice work Jeremy

Happy to help, I'm just glad someone wanted those old parts.... It sure does make the Raider look 100% better... Yes, old Kyosho plastics seem to hold up much better than Tamiya plastics but I think that's because Tamiya is a model maker first then an RC company, They did change the plastics a few times and now being made outside of Japan may or may not help the plastics longevity, only time will tell.

Looks ready to hit the track soon Jeremy! Good work!😀👍

Looks great, nice work brother

Nice work mate 👍 She looks great on my screen 😎🏁

This really brings back memories. I got a Raider ARR for Christmas one year. I had lost interest in the hobby by then (maybe 12 or13 years old), and it sat untouched in its box for many years. I finally ran it (probably 20 years later, lol) and broke the plastic driveshaft on the first battery. Now I'm thinking I should try to find some metal driveshafts off eBay or Amazon that might fit. 🤔 Can't wait to see yours in action, and I hope you have better luck with the driveshafts than I did! 👊🏼👊🏼
