Thank for the positive comments. I do have a couple of small alloy bumbers that I made for it. They are fine on sand but anywhere else the Proline protects the fragile bits19-Aug-2008

Looks the business. Like the tinted screen just makes more personal. Top job on the Driver, in the process of doing a fun one for mine. Will put up pics when he's finished.19-Aug-2008

The body mounts come from two tc member's tutorials. The front is the foam and velcro method and the rear is using the screw holes for the hopper shell.25-Aug-2008

Thanks for comments. It was purley by chance that it ended up on the 'Bull chassis. The chassis was sitting on my spares shelf. I doing a sort out and just left it on top of it whilst tidying up. The more I looked at it the more I liked it.2-Nov-2008

The gold stirpe reminds me of the Starsky n Hutch car - very retro. Now if I could only paint a check shirt on the driver lol.4-Nov-2008

As far as I remember it was used on poor quality steel cars ie BL cars and some of the jap cars. They came with inbuilt rust so the colour was a perfect match.4-Nov-2008

Here's a couple of pics of the chassis as requested. @ Andersop thanks as I said I do like a challenge. I would prefer to bring a wreck of a shell back to life rather than just spray up a new shell.14-Feb-2009

The boxart has a 17 turn Kyaosho Atomic force and the black one has a parma team spec. Both fly:)14-Feb-2009

Seriously, there have been a lot of enquiries as to how this was acheived. I use the KISS (keep it simple stupid)method. It works for Tamiya why re-invent the wheel. If you look closely at the chassis and next to the Gumout Decal you will see Lancia 037 Rally mounts. Hope this helps everyone out there.4-Mar-2009
Dont need to glue the tires on the rims!

Good idea going to try it. Another way is to put rubber bands on the rims. It works a treat. It's not my idea it was on a set of clod wheels I got some time ago.13-Mar-2009
