description  I still had to post this favourite runner. A TA-02 with the large tires and locked diffs can run just everywhere. But it had to look good so I build this ' fool-proof' baja style shell. Just nice but nothing too breakable (well, besides the exhaust that came of on the first run... ofcourse!) There is one thing I have too finish: a textile cover for the bathtub. Besides filling up with the forest itself it is running perfectly.

Great old School look, nice paint job and scale look

@gordini: the shell is a cheap but solid no-name from racersparadise, a german ebay seller. Rear wheels and tires are standard Pajero but painted. @Tobbe: I really wish there were more Volvo bodies available: I love all Volvo's ! @Daniel: thanks for noticing, that was the intention... @Seth: sharp eyes you got mate @all: Thank you, I appreciate that!

Nice work Kees, I love it I like how you sanded the front tires, they look old and used in many desert races

Wow thats cool, frond tires are very realistic. tell us more about the rear and what shell did you use?

CASE1  05/11/2010 08:05:56
Thanks for the reactions! @Beetlelover: fornt wheels are modified Hummer wheels, I cut off the extra bolds like Wyoming does. And sanded the Hummer tires down to a smaller diameter

BTW: the weathering is enamel flatt rust/sand/grey mixed with white spirit.

Wow! Wasnt aware of this one, absolutley brilliant. Superb work! Really want one. These chassis are pretty good, have been running a Ta01 for about a year and its stood up to a lot of abuse. This is a proper scale looking bug! Love it.

Looks great, like even the style of your front and rear wheel/tyre combo. Love the exhaust too! This looks also at your favorit spot to take picture´s from the most of your cars!
