I like the Space Invaders theme too... very cool. I toyed with a Missle Command scheme on a crawler I was building but never got around to it. :)

Mine's, erm, not a van anymore...

Makes two of us...

MambaMax 5700Kv powered with all the usual upgrades and CRP double wishbone front suspension. I put the van body onto a shortened M04 chassis.

The Cannonball Run body is cool! Just need a Burt Reynolds and a 'HIM' character to put in the front.

Lunch box's and Pumpkins are some of my favorite cars. One of my well used runners is a Midnight Pumpkin.

Love the Cannon Ball Run look. Some great paint jobs so far. Makes my standard box art look a bit boring really :)

Thats how it looked right after I got it from Ebay and restored it. Been rolled many times since then :D

My son still has his to build - not sure what colour he will opt for, but there's a can of yellow in the box. Some great examples in this thread, which i'll have to keep from him otherwise i'll be spraying wheels and all sorts of other parts for him.

Here's my old one - it looked like this for the first five minutes of it's maiden run, then got a bit trashed

After that, it became this;

and that got a bit trashed too :)
