Superb score Fil..... Welcome to the 959 owners club! Looks like a real good example there mate, it's very rare to find one without cracked wishbones and broken drive hubs. I would hazard a guess that this has been restored with NOS parts at some stage. The extra ribbed skid plates are actually from the Celica GRB, they are slightly different from the 959, as are the hubs and shock towers/body posts. The black speed controls were standard until the late eighties, the browny orangey ones came in around 1990 (ish) if I remember correctly. The black one was probably the one that the car came with, and the other was probably fitted when it was restored. Like I say, that's a great example buddy..... MCI and TBG do some great reproduction body shells for these should you wish to do a new body, although personally, I love the original with all of its dents and dings! The protective film was a great idea, and great to see you taking her out for a rip, but be careful!! These things are soooo fragile, and finding new parts is extremely hard and expensive! They are an absolute delight to drive once running right, and give a very life like driving experience. You may need to service those dampers, seeing that rear wheel kicking up like that..... the suspension usually is devine on this car! I own three of these now, and know this chassis inside and out, if you need any advice just drop me a message buddy. So then, fancy trying to beat my 959 slalom challenge time of 8.86 mate? 😂 Great video Sir! 🙏 👍 👍 👍 Oh, and the slicks were an optional extra mate. The kit came with rally blocks as standard. Your rally blocks look in great condition, they usually split on the tire wall..... replacing the rally blocks is not easy,the few that are still out there command Huge figures! 🤑 The slicks are a lot easier to find new and are slightly less expensive. I would rub those old slicks back with a bit of wet and dry and run it on those if I were you matey. They generally stay very soft and should still perform. Enjoy! 👍
@@theoagrc You know that matey! 🍻 😜 Don't worry, I'm well accustomed to being ripped..... you have to have a thick skin working with that Taylor clown! 😂 👍 👍 👍
Ah yes, I was waiting for you to chime in. The 959 guru! Haha! I appreciate all the great info, pal. Thanks for taking the time. I don't know if I'm brave enough to drive it much more, we shall see if that changes. Like you said, parts aren't exactly cheap or readily available... Maybe Tamiya will rere it, and all our parts woes will dissappear??? 😉
Great find and one of the most asked question, why has Tamiya not re-issued this one. The switch is a BEC as I fitted one to my first Accoms radio set and saved the use 4AA batteries. Not see the original instructions for many years. 21.3mph not bad speed, but the body was so cool.
Welcome to the club 👍 Some parts in the box are for the Celica. The original speed controller has a plug for the "LED". Warning, this may seem in good condition but lots of parts (especially front lower arm and rear chassis attachment) can be full of crack, extreme caution when unscrewing. Power dump can be due to Nicd, they tend to lose power fast and maybe 1060 went in Limp mode. Where's the cockpit ? And yeah the Technigold is pretty nippy on this chassis, I was amazed too. Now can't wait to see the Porsche on the skate park jumps 😁😂🤝
Great score Fil, It is cool you were able to get one and in such great shape. Personally I am not a huge fan of them but I appreciate them for what they are. Enjoy having it in the collection!
Wow!!! Great score buddy!!! That’s absolutely incredible! I’m still waiting for/hoping for a re re of some kind. Gave up on a OG. Really happy for you!!!!!
there might be a bad connection in the speed controller, so that it looses it's 3rd step and only has step 2 at full speed. Great video, a friend f mine had this car back in the days, while I had the Avante. Or has, still have it LOL.
This was my first RC, my uncle gifted it to me. Went a few months after I had it and asked the local hobby shop if they'd trade it for an RC10L. They laughed me out of the hobby shop... lol
Man, what a find, and it definitely deserves to be in the poor boys' room. It's amazing how they packed everything in that small chassis. You can tell they took their time on that little gem no wonder it so sought after. Great video, as always bro and I see the room is getting full of awesome cars!
Loving the Technigold tune lol but the star of the show the 959! How super cool to own one Fil. What a classic! So pleased for you its a special tamiya! Great to see it in action too! Cheers pal.
oooo, I used to have one of those. Looked a lot like that one actually. Hang on, it was that exact one 🙂 Glad to see it made the trip to you in good shape, and fantastic to see it running ! I can't take credit or blame for the build though, I got it exactly how you showed it, as it came in a bundle, it didn't fit in my collection too well, so I'm super glad to see it's gone on to a great home. great video good sir, excellent you might even say.
Well it was the gree Grasshopper ha didnt think so but Im adding one to the collection. Im off to Japan next weekend for 2 weeks for work and for 65 AUD I can pick one up brand new what a bargain and a BBX is 290 AUD. Lucky the wife os coming so I can use her luggage 😂
Woah the Holy Grail indeed! What a haul and great to see how stoked you are about it. But I think James (Yoda) is even more excited than you! 🤣🤣 Love the advert - the Tyco Turbo Hopper was my first RC back in the day! I enjoyed the run and the speed test, weird about the power loss though. Great vid dude - stay excellent! 😎👊🦫👍
Thanks, Mark! Yeah you're right, James is more excited than I am, I think! Haha! He's the 959 Guru, so I'm happy to have him available for all questions pertaining to the 959. Have an excellent weekend, my man! 😎👊🏼🍻
@@Hillbillypunk haha, it was time to switch things up a little bit, my man! I'm so stoked to have this old gal in the collection now. Thanks for watching! 👊🏼
@@poorboysrc I've had many, many on road cars in the past. Right now I only have one, a TT-01, in form of the Buggyra Fat Fox, cause after all, it's a truck! Lol Nice one tho! Makes me wish I'd held on to every RC I had since the mid ninety's.
Great video as always Fil, somewhat controversially I have to admit I don't really get the Hype around the 959 model. I remember all the classics from back in the 80's, buggies, monster trucks etc but have no real over riding memory of the 959. I wonder if Tamiya will re release it for their 50th anniversary in the next year or so, they seem to like releasing Porsche models for their Anniversaries!
Fair enough, my man. It's not everyone's favorite, and I can totally understand why. Personally, I've always loved the uniqueness of the chassis. The wacky suspension, the highly detailed (for the time) body, it always stuck me as a special car. And one I certainly could not afford as a kid! 👍🏻
@@poorboysrc I'm not putting it down or anything. If Tamiya released it again as an anniversary edition I'd most likely buy one for the collection as the 959 is a great car IRL
Hey how amazing to have one of these Fil. Like you say it must be high on any Tamiya enthusiasts wish list. I have to say that I thought it was a bit bigger than this for some reason. Very nice overview mate, some very interesting design features 👍👍👍
There's actually a strong market of aftermarket 3D printed parts for it now. Not that it would be any kind of real runner by today's standards. But fun to blast around and not worry about breaking a 3D printed part would be nice. 👍🏻
Outstanding video!!! I finally understand what that iconic model was all about. Thank you. The sound at the end was a spin out. Very cool. Where on earth did that come from?
Awesome, glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for taking the time to comment. The song is still top secret, haha. But you can shoot me an email and I'll let ya know. Poorboysrc78@gmail.com 👊🏼
I’m pretty sure if I had one of these it would go in a case in the lounge room. I would have to take all the family pictures down but what do you do? 😂 Fingers crossed for a rerelease soon
It's a sign! Go for it!!! 😄 Oh, and just a heads up, MCI is working on a fully 3D printed 959. That means affordable replacement parts! Woo hoo! They're going to send me a set to review when they're ready. I'm not sure how long it'll be, but they are coming. 👍🏻
I spent $80 on a a rafil that rckicks was putting on trying to win a 959 no luck for me I I wanted it so bad it’s such a cool car. I had a tyco turbo hopper man that brings me back.
Wow! That’s an awesome find. The Porsche 959 and Toyota Celica were state of the art back in the day and still highly sought after today. Good to see one in great working condition. That old technigold motor is still pretty quick too!👍😎
Nice , skideplates are for the Celica gr.b. Gearbox and msc black are not originals . Front resistor wrong mounted. Need to be horizontal . White plastic between 2 bumpers must be black .
I actually had 3 of these cars. I sold 2 last year and have one left. The one that I have left I am not going to sell. I just did not need 3. I also had lots of parts. I sold most of my parts too. I even had the original tires, wheels and body. The parts I had sold fast on eBay and for good money. The body sold for a lot of money. Thoughts?
Parts are rare for this bird, I'm sure you were able to get some decent $$$ for them. Good call keeping one for yourself. These cars are definitely worth hanging on to. 👍🏻
@@poorboysrc Yes, made good money selling the parts. I still do have some parts. I did not sell everything. I am not going to sell my last 959. I like it to much. I was not trying to have 3 cars. I just started buying broken 959s on eBay because I could get them cheap. The problem was I was trying to fix one but the same parts were always broken. I finally bought the parts when they were available on eBay and was able to get 3 working. Now, I only have one. I did make money doing this, but that was not what I was trying to do. I was just to get one in that was not broken. What I did you can not do today. Thoughts?
where did you find that song😂 what a find a mate👍 pleased for you. i’ve been temped to buy a 3rd party 959 for the tt bit ya know , feels like a bit wrong🤷♂️
Congratulations! Time to change the name from Poor Boys to Baller Boys RC! :)
Great comment Gav 😂

Probably licence costs from Porsche 🤑🤑🤑🤑
@@Alan-cg8gx I did think that but Tamiya does other Porsche cars and a model 959. I could be the livery.
Yeah if that body could tell stories... It's been around! 😂
Amazing find Fil, cool looking car.
Thanks dude! 😁
Great find, Fil! I can't say I'm not jealous!
@rcinhand9671 Thanks, pal! It's been on my radar for, oh... 20 years now... haha. It's great to finally hold one. 👍🏻
Welcome to the club 👍 Some parts in the box are for the Celica. The original speed controller has a plug for the "LED". Warning, this may seem in good condition but lots of parts (especially front lower arm and rear chassis attachment) can be full of crack, extreme caution when unscrewing.

Now can't wait to see the Porsche on the skate park jumps 😁😂🤝
Hahaha, I thought about doing a cheeky skate park intro, just to scare the crap out of you guys! 🤣
Amazing find Fil!! Congratulations and well deserved! That was a tough secret to keep! Can't wait for Blue Grove to deliver my goodies.
Thanks pal! Hopefully your goodies show up soon! 😁
Great find 🎉
Thanks for watching! 👊🏼
Great score Fil, It is cool you were able to get one and in such great shape. Personally I am not a huge fan of them but I appreciate them for what they are. Enjoy having it in the collection!
Thanks buddy! They're certainly not the best performing RC's out there. But boy do they look good! 😉
Wow!!! Great score buddy!!! That’s absolutely incredible! I’m still waiting for/hoping for a re re of some kind. Gave up on a OG. Really happy for you!!!!!
Fingers crossed they rere it! I think we'd all like to see that! 👌
there might be a bad connection in the speed controller, so that it looses it's 3rd step and only has step 2 at full speed. Great video, a friend f mine had this car back in the days, while I had the Avante. Or has, still have it LOL.
Nice! Avante is such a beauty! Right up there with the 959 if you ask me. 👌
This was my first RC, my uncle gifted it to me. Went a few months after I had it and asked the local hobby shop if they'd trade it for an RC10L. They laughed me out of the hobby shop... lol
@raulvelez6125 wow, that's crazy, hey? And today the 959 is a collectors item... If only wr knew back then... 😂
Old RCs are special.
They sure are! Gotta love 'em! ❤️
Nice 👍 well done Fil 👏
Hey, thanks Mark! 😊
Nice find!
Thanks, Joe! 👊🏼
Awesomeness and I had the red Turbo Hopper!
Nice! Gotta love the old school Turbo Hoppers! 👌
Awesome car Fil. Congrats you got one. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Dirk. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it! 🤩
I love the 959
She's a classic! 🤩
I believe the front and rear skid plates with out the large holes are from the Celica Grb.
You're 100% bang on!
Nice to see non shelf queen.
Yeah we need to get them out and stretch their legs every now and again, right? 😁
We brush painted our bodies with Tamiya paints . I’m that old lol ! Great video !
Yeah that's how we did it back in the day, wasn't it? Crazy times! Thanks for commenting! 👍🏻
I used to want one when they were new back in the day.
Very cool.
They're iconic, no doubt about that. They're also clunky and handle poor by today's standards. But man, are they beautiful! 🤩
nice find man, love the song @15:22
@mejfambam if you liked that song you're gonna LOVE the song in tomorrow's video! Don't miss it! 😉👊🏼
Very cool! That suspension is crazy different to anything I've seen before. But what a great find!

Great to see it in action too! Cheers pal.
Thanks for watching, James. Hope you have a great weekend! 👍🏻
I’ve never been attracted to the 959, but it’s cool you’ve got an original, in the Rothman’s livery
And bodies are on sale this weekend at TBG, so I'll grab a nice repro to tidy it up. 😀

Absolutely loved this Fil!! Congratulations buddy! What an absolute find and one for the ages pal! Get it up on the shelf now and look after her well!
She's going to get a special spot in the house for display. She's almost 40 now, she's earned it. 😁

That's the tough part, finding one in decent shape at a fair price. They are out there, just gotta be patient and eventually one will pop up. 😉
@@poorboysrc i'll be happy when Project959 arrives but an original would be amazing
That piece of rc history, should be placed in a custom clear case and displayed. Mark my words one day Tamiya will re-release this timeless beauty.
And that's exactly what's happen with it. My wife has given me the green light to display it downstairs. 🤩
Loving that music track, where did you find that one from it went well with the car. Awesome find by the way.😊😊😊😊😊
