IYUNVME 32 Posted May 6, 2020 Hello, I have been building RC's for a long time. I am a big fan of Tamiya's hard body models in box art. I dont build all stock, I like to mod slightly. Especially the wheels as I always felt Tamiya's stock wheels were cheap looking in a way and didn't do justice to the model. Anyway here is my collection of classics that I was very found of as a Kid in the 80's. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IYUNVME 32 Posted May 6, 2020 This is a Blackfoot with clodbuster chassis for something different. I like monster trucks and always thought the blackfoot should have been more than what it was stock, so here it is built with alot of cpe parts. I like how the wheels came out with the yellow accents to resemble the box art colors. 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IYUNVME 32 Posted May 6, 2020 My monster beetle. One of my favorites as a kid. This one is moded with 2.8 gold anodized aluminum wheels, and 2.8 proline Trencher tires. I really do like the way 2.8 wheels look on these. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

metalheadDad 119 Posted June 10, 2020 @IYUNVME the Grasshopper looks cool! Was there any other mods you needed to do to have the square set (same size front/rear) wheels on it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
