Hi guys, I restored this little guy, not like box art but with some extra details.
I hope to run it soon and take some action shots.
Love the little Pajero and this one will be a great runner! ;)

Nice resto - the body shell does tale a beating with these, and I'm sure the bathtub chassis had a broken front mount as well. Look forward to seeing some action shots!

Love it!! Looks ace! The Pajero is the ultimate FUN Machine!! I have run my pajero from the first day I got it and it never fails to put a smile on my face!!

Its looking a bit rough and battered now but is still going strong and still looks great as a runner for the beach and is reliable too!
What motor do you have in this?
Nice to see you have a real spare and love the details you have added!
My Pajero body has withstood some very hard hits they are very strong for hard plastic! but prepare yourself for some bangs & scrapes and missing bits!!lol after all these are one of the craziest Tamiya's when in action!!

Wheelies galore, bouncy suspension, high speeds and barrel roll madness!!

What a Classic Tamiya!

Have fun BeetleOne!

¡¡Buenísimo!! Muchas veces he pensado en hacer algo así Giorgio. Te quedó bellísimo. El bichito este debe ser una bestia para la arena. Ojalá podás compartir fotos en acción. ¡Buenísimo tu trabajo!

Looking forward to the action shots, these are quirky and an absolute hoot to drive and try and keep upright! Enjoy!

You need to post some pics with it on the beach in the dunes; Paris to Dakar?

Wow! Thanks guys for all the great comments you have left here!
@TamTom thank you, yes, this little Pajero is a cute model! . @stickerbod thanks buddy, glad you like it! @Porsche959Boy Thanks, you are right, seems like the front mounts are fragile in these guys! I hope to take some nice action shots . @Pintopower thank you and yes styrene is very versatile for reparations and for custom proyects with body shells. @MAD-BEE thank you buddy! Your Pajero is already a legend here on TC I agree they are lots of fun and they put a smile on my face too ! About the motor it's the stock motor, I think it's enough in these guys, I don't want make it ungovernable Anyway about bangs scrapes and missing bits I am planning to run it on sand only just to prevent major damaged Well, thank you MAD-BEE, I hope to take some nice action shots! @mongoose1983, muchas gracias Erich! Siempre me gusto' este modelo, y por fin hace un tiempito tuve la suerte de encontrar un ejemplar aca' localmente para restaurar y a muy buen precio. Y si, tiene toda la pinta de ser una bestia en la arena! espero poder coompartir pronto fotos en accion! @JWeston thank you, just let me see the performance in action . @berman thank you buddy, I agree about how they perform and on its behaviour , yes action shots are needed! @Kontemax, actually as the original window set was broken in the windshield section, I replaced the damaged section with a piece of lexan. @Tamtastic I agree, action shots in the dunes are needed! urgently!! . @Grumpy pants better do not sell it, in my opinion it is a nice and unique vintage model. @IBIFTKH Thank you, yes usually I prefer not to many stickers on the bodies.
Thanks to all you guys! Cheers, Giorgio
