Finaly rebuilt my ebay Fox, ready to run down the beach. Not had much time for toys this year, but had to get this up and running,so as to race Jackson on the beach with his Mad Bull!

Should have taken pics, before i run it! :-)

Had to lock diff, as gear had rounded for d/shaft.

Body is a replica, with modefied rep decals

Paint is Porsche Iris blue

Took inspiration from Sayroll's perfect Fox!

Beetle lover's driver head

All the new parts, bit over the top for a runner!

Wheels painted Porsche Seal gray

Thanks Mad-Bee, Think he will smoke me! I should have good traction though, with the locked diff.

Great looking Fox. The wheel and tyre combo is magic.

Thanks Henk4focus, A bit flash for a runner, i know, but only going to drive it on the beach, so no risk of smacking em against a curb ;-0

BEAUTIFUL!!...really like what you did with the wheels....and shocks

That locked diff will help for sure! I had a Fox years ago but it never hit the beach but it did have a great performance!! I have a Mad Bull Truck for beach fun so i know its at home on sand but it will have its work cut out with this hot looking Fox! One is a cheap but very cheerful strong fast fun buggy and one is a fast smooth high performance vintage Legend! what a contrast of buggy's!!
see if you can get some pics of the Fox & Bull on the beach?? Love a good beach shot!
Have fun mate.

Thanks Butcher-Bird The shocks are my old standard kyosho superten units, as i have tuned ones on that. Never was keen on the yellow!

Silver Fox is a beauty it's perfect in my eyes. Love the wheels. It can never be to flash to run
