Brilliant Steve! Brings back memories of my first Tamiya. I only pity you the agony of deciding whether to take it for a spin or not. You know what I would do mate! :-)

Very nice, I have a 65 convertible in spring time yellow. Are you a member of the Danish mustang club?

Scratchbuild chassis (sold to the uk 2008-1-29)
Steffen
Sorry, but I (foolishly) threw the mag away years when moving house. I'm parting out the car for sale, so if you'd like the chassis let me know.

Kamtec golf mk i
Steffen
Kamtec only sells the ABS version of the shell, but you can get the lexan one if you ask. I think it cost about £7.50. It seems to be a straight copy of the Tamiya 1/12 Grp. 2 Golf from the 80s.

Good luck, I'll look forward to seeing your finished version.

Tl01 based blackfoot extreme
Steffen
Glad you like it, I couldn't help myself when I saw it on eBay. I think adding a front bumper and maybe changing the wheels to Hummer ones with BF Goodrich tyres would finish it off nicely. That, and a faster motor :-)

Steffen
You know you need one, Jason has one in his shop ;-) If you go to www.abchobby.com you can also see the soon-to-come Datsun A510 Bluebird and Mini Traveller. Me likey!

M-01 converted to m-02 (sold locally 04-03-2010)
Steffen
I'm afraid I've tried that, I need some that are totally straight instead. Actually like the ones on the front end.

I probably shouldn't have either, but you only live once, right?

Jeep cherokee on ta-02 (sold to the netherlands, september 2008)
Steffen
In Denmark at least it's marketed as the Jeep Cherokee (http://www.jeep.dk/vehicles/cherokee/), and 'the real deal' is called the Grand Cherokee. Go figure.

Come on, it's screaming for paint ;-) Can't wait to see all your hop-ups fitted either!

Subaru brat - brat cam™
Toxic
I admire your courage, I chickened out and bought a regular beige chassis for mine and stored the chrome one. As you say, terrain is rough. Any colour on the body yet or did I beat you to it?

Hop-up horn of plenty

Nice hoard, the Alpine will be awesome

Subaru brat - brat cam™

Finding a nice colour for the lexan body is difficult, the dark blue Tamiya used at the hobby show didn't do it any favours. I'm thinking orange or lime for mine.

Was tempted by the silver frame edition
Steffen
If I could only find lime in a lexan spray paint, any suggestions?

Tough runner

It's a beauty. What's the name of that colour?

Golf 5 on m-03 chassis
Steffen
I think I'll have a look at my M-chassis wheel stash to see if any of them make a significant difference. I was thinking of doing a replica of the American APR Tuning white and black Golf with black BBS style wheels with red rims. If I can't find any narrow or negative offset wheels maybe a replica of VWs Golf W12 concept which has huge arches

Amazing work, and very refreshing. Some 'how I did it' shots would be icing on the cake!

The ESC was fine once it had dried, but it had me semi-worried for a while.
