The rarest rc model I have. A little dusty but not in desperate need of a rebuild, that can be done another time.
Ascona 1 has a 1976 catalogue illustration in his showroom showing this sidecar combination. It appears to have been sold for one year only.
Virtually complete with original riders although they don't fit all that well !!
The engine turns freely and has good compression, I don't think it has ever been run.
A fantastic piece of RC history, I never thought I'd have one of these :-)

You're right Monty, yellow could work ! It would fit in with the rest of my collection (it is after all the colour of choice for most of my rebuilds) You've got me thinking now ..............

oh, you get also one, fine to see. It is called Dash-8, it is a very rare model but it looks so cool.

Thanks Frank, I wanted one from the moment I first saw them, I think it's one of the most original and unusual RC models ever made

Hi Roger - Hope you are fine Fella. Just seen this in your showroom. Its Fantastic. Do you still own it? Did you get it from the US? Only have 1 Kyosho bike myself but would love some more - they are all so unique in looks and this one is a real rarity- Fantastic
