Cooling head suggests thunder tiger. Phillips screws all over suggests thunder tiger/tamiya perhaps. Got any more photos? Guessing it's a bit older. That's a really weird exhaust manifold.

kind of my initial thought, but the layout just didn't seem quite right, i posted on his intro thread and you may be able to confirm or deny that i think its a Kyosho PureTen Alpha?

Yep, think you nailed it!
PureTen GP alpha 2:

Or, could be the PureTen GP alpha 3:

Hard to tell, can't find any clear photos on the site of it top down.

I always forget that a lot of old rc's had philips head. Some still do.
 
Cheers guys for all your help , when it arrives I'll put a couple of pics up to make it easier, I'm going to strip it down and clean it up so I'll do some before and after pics

Picking this up late but I’m sure it’s a Kyosho pure ten alpha. They did a Magazine build few years back diagostini or something,
Getting parts might be tricky the Cars quite old . Try looking around on that popular site for off loading junk , Gums and trees or E’s in the bay.
