Each of the Raiders had different add-on parts on the top. These photos are from two different Raiders. Can anyone ID the highlighted parts?

Hi there,

The first part (highlighted in red) looks like the top battery stay from a 1/6 Tamiya Z1300 motorcycle kit...

I hope that helps.

Thanks. Do you have one of these kits? I found the pictures at the end of my post on eBay, but the part isn't jumping out at me. Also, I don't think that this kit would have been available at the end of 1977 while the miniature were being built since it is a 1979 bike.

Here's a drawing of what I think the part looks like:

Hey Chris

The red part that covers the top hatch is from the Italeri/Peerless 155mm gun kit. Part #77 I believe. Knew I saw it some where...

I spent the last evening looking for my built-up Tamiya Z1300 with no luck whatsoever!

Sorry about that, although the fact it may be off-base yearwise probably knocks it out of the running anyway... :unsure

Sorry about that.

Thanks, Doug, I appreciate it! BTW, you have quite a lot of knowledge for a guy with one post!
