BUGBOX 3 Posted February 10, 2012 This is just amazing! I am assuming you will get the scorcher back one day and have them side by side?Few questions... Are you going to powdercoat the wheels white? Is it going to have a wheelie bar (either fake or real)? If the wheelie bar is real, are you sure it wont need the NO2 bottle connected for wheelie good fun? I love how you have added all the smaller details like the screw heads and rear multi-links etc! If the BugBox scorcher is anything to go by, this is going to be an absolute stunner! The wheels will stay like this as we are doing box art not model! We might have an engine cover and wheelie bars but not sure yet! We are building anotherbScorcher too and maybe a Rough Rider soon!

BUGBOX 3 Posted February 15, 2012 Thanks for the extra pics - looks like you'll will need a ladder to get into it We sure will as the entrance is 1,60metres above the ground! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BUGBOX 3 Posted February 15, 2012 Great stuff, Walter! I guess we'll be seeing a 1:1 version of Willies T2 in your shop soon (look sharp!): We won´t do this one as the base is too expensive and a Monster Truck chassis wont look right! We are doing many Sambas but lowered rather than raised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matman 1500 Posted March 17, 2012 Great to see it moving , But come on whats up with the wheels . I have a feeling , that you are only aloud to use them on the road ?. Fantastic too see it's there & running . Well done to you & your team . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SRB Bloke 237 Posted March 17, 2012 Sounds good, and nice to see it moving... (even with the worst wheels in the world) But you have to find a way to get it pulling wheelies, without snapping the axles.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
