Building a new in box Willy's wheeler is awesome!! Very seldom you see those being built. Looking forward to the build pics.. :-)

James if you have some photos of it that would help a lot. They are still bought by drivers & collectors. Like you said it will depend on condition. I would be interested in the rough rider & lamborghini models..

That is how i cut my hilux body too. Takes a little patience but it was well worth it. easier to clean the cut areas with a sandpaper.. A great tip.. Please don't start cutting on all the vintage bodies lol..... :D

Great restoration on the body & buggy.. Everything looks great complete with decals too.. :-)

Great restoration on the body. So nice to see a body saved..

Nice work on the super champ body.. I don't think i have those skills to fix the one i have..lol.. Maybe i should try that sometime..

Thats nice with the hop ups.. What body are you going to put on?

Welcome to the wonderful world of Tamiya club & fans.. :)

1st run of the wraith up top..

Your Hilux looks great! Nice to see it restored back to original.. Any off body shots?

Runner superchamp

Hard to take a pic while running the blackfoot..

Thanks to maquettedecox for the wonderful plexiglass interior for the scorcher. Spudtrooper37 for the template, J-man for the bumpers, cage & rollbar, RA1028 for the alloy rims n stuff, Franklin & lots more nice people..

Those two are great specimens of vintage aftermarket parts.. I see a lot of goodies on it. Been collecting some parts to build them too. Takes quite a while to get them complete.. Are you going to run them?

Thank you to all i have dealt with a while ago Mongoose1983, rad22, cultech, scollins, bimdapogs, gad32 there should be more... I'll add when i remember them..

Wheeler advan tires would be great to remake. It would fit both ascona & audi rims.. At 60 that would be great i'll get a few sets for my wheelers & opel. Lucky one of my wheeler has good tires on it still..

Replaced the thin chassis on the scorcher runner with a thick alloy one.. No more flex..

A load of stuff for the srb projects.. Chassis, screws, tires, front arms, shocks...

Thanks for the info.. Came with a lot of srb stuff thought it was a tamiya part..

Need to id a manual speed control & brass gear. Does anyone recognize these?

Toyota Celica emblems.. Star wars cards.. I haven't sorted this one out since i bought it a while back... Only had a few cards before.. Herpa,wiking collections 1/72 scale

That a nice old school rough rider chase... Should be nice to make a replica of it..

Any updates on the project?

Restoration well done. You are lucky to find one in that condition. The one i found is in bad shape need quite a bit of parts to restore.. So its still sitting on the shelf..

Sorted out the srb spares see if i have enough to make a runner.. Might be needing a gearbox...
