And here´s the manual.

If you had a Carlsson Viking 4WS and you wanted 4WD. You could save money here to and buy the conversion kit. Kit No 5428 with front differential for your on-road car, or Kit No 5429 without front differential for your off-road car. The instructions are an exploded view with almost no text that show...

If you had a Carlsson Pro 80 S and you wanted front suspension like the Carlsson Viking 4WS you could save some money and buy a conversion kit for your old car. http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/6658/4wsconvkit.jpg This is such a conversion but with the later radio plate. http://a.imageshack.us/img...

In the early 80:s Carlsson made a conversion kit to transform your 1:8 on road Carlsson into an off road car. The kit contained 8 foam tires, 4 tracks, replacement rear suspension arms and chaindrive. The instructions show how you should glue the foames on your existing rims and then glue the tracks...

Hello This is my latest car, it is a Dash VII but the Deluxe version with suspension arms like the circiut 20 cars, or more like the Body Baja actually with only singel arms in the front. The arms are made from steel sheet metal and not alu as later models. This was the first Kyosho with spiked tire...
