Wild Willy 2, Chrome / Metallic Special for sale.
The chassis has been lightly used on grass and tarmac, but with another / standard WW bodyshell.
The metallic bodyshell is an unused shelf queen. Willy is a brand new pre-painted figure.
Includes box, manual, standard motor and a good working Futaba steering servo, but no radio gear or ESC.

This is a hopped up chassis which runs straight, true and fast rather than the usual characteristics of uncontrollable non-stop wheelie popping. Its the first WW2 I've seen that actually corners well. However if you feel the need for 2 wheeled motoring, it has a brilliant mod of using a rubber aircraft wheel instead of the useless plastic thing, so it stays up and rolls beautifully when tipped up. It is fully ball raced, has TRF fluorine shocks and bushed GPM ali arms. Its a great runner, and is in good looked-after condition, easily nice enough for display. Its in my TC Showroom if you click on the sig link.

£60 plus £15 tracked postage within the UK.

It is with deep regret that I am selling my Wild Wendy. She is one of the second batch of the Mk1 version, Number 6 from 2008. If you remember, this was the follow-on batch Toymkr73 made from the original moulds. All were painted with a paler skin tone than his previous version. None came with a certificate, but Matt signed each one on their bottom to confirm authenticity.

All Wendys are unique as you know. Mine was modelled on a real person - me - with dark brown hair and eyes, denim blue shorts, daisies on her sandals, and a really cool looking flame hot-rod T-shirt. In truth she is far prettier than myself, I wish I had her waistline LOL!! She has been safely stored all this time in the dark so the colours are as fresh as when she arrived. Neither has she been glued into a permanent position, so you can pose her arms and head as you would like. She's gorgeous.

Never raced or rallied!

£125 GBP. Will include very secure packaging, tracked signed-for UK postage and any Paypal fees.

I've been trying to find a replacement new bodyparts set (shell, wing and stickers) for my Avante Mk2 for ages. I'm sure I've seen them on Ebay. This is for the 'unloved' DF-03 version, not the original vintage or 2001.
Perhaps you've bought a new DF-03 kit and want to get rid of the shell it came with?!  

Can anyone please help?
Please email me rabiedmushroom@btinternet.com if you can - much appreciated

Edit - someone has already dropped me a line (thank you!) but I ought to point out you can also get ickle Avante shells for the little 4wd cars. But its for the the 1/10th r/c released in 2007 I'm after.

I never mange to break a ESC before so not sure if this is terminal!

I been successfully running a Novak Super Duty ESC set up for my twin-motor Clod for a while. Great fun     
However in truth its been glitching going into reverse for a while but I thought dud batteries weren't helping. I think my icy session yesterday (TC movie uploaded!) finished it off. A few hours after the session, turned off but batteries still connected (ooops   ) it started spitting and hissing like a Dragon, and the ESC fins heated up to Gordon Ramsey kitchen temperatures. I've pulled the box apart overnight in case any moisture was trapped, and reprogrammed it this morning. Its fine going forwards but reversing I have no power and causes it to whine like Wall-E (not I'm not kidding it sounds just like it, quite amusing really).

Dead, or salvageable? Advice appreciated please guys  

Hiya, I'm looking for a replacement (NIP) DF-03 Avante MkII body shell, wing and decals. Not had a lot of luck on Ebay or websites recently, but I have seen them for sale (drat, should have bought when seen!!). Can you help please?
