Motors

One of the major parts of a vintage Tamiya kit is I my opinion a vintage Tamiya motor. It is very important to me when restoring or building a vintage Tamiya kit to fit the proper motor.

In this section I have listed all the motors I have any information on. But as you can see there are gaps. I would really appreciate your input in order to fill in the "missing links".
