This arrived in the post today, not sure how to describe it, it is 2 Wild Willy chassis bolted together with a modified Holiday Buggy shell on top, which has an electric fan on the back and a battery operated water pistol in it!!!!
I may keep it as it is, the chassis is very solid, will be stripping it and cleaning it soon.
All comments welcome!!
Update: due to lots of people asking lots of questions:
The bodyshell was once a Holiday Buggy, it looks like someone cut up a Wild Willy bodyshell and stuck it creatively on top along with some bits of plasticard and a battery operated water pistol!
The water pistol now operates (every now and then) from the 3rd channel of a traxxas reciever.
If you liked those pictures, you should see these...

Thats all class in its own Mad Max movie sort of way! Maybe a tidy up and a repaint in the existing style could be in order?!!

Possibly one of the most bizzare vehicles I've seen on Tamiyaclub! I think this has to remain like this, it's too cool to be used for spares or made into a Wild Willy!

Planning on just cleaning it, possibly repainting/weathering and then use it in my upcoming video!
Not got the water pistol working yet, but it only arrived this morning. As soon as it's all working I'll post a vid.

What a post Atomic veicle! Don't change it, is absolutelly ugly and for this reason is absolutely beautyfull! What a great patchwork, it remember me the Brundlefly with Jeff Goldblum!

That is absolutely hilarious! It's almost demented. It reminds me of that kid in Toy Story that mutilates all his toys. I see you have it listed as a WW1, but this almost deserves its own category. Hmmm, how do you think this would look with a Rothmans scheme? lol Nice fun find!

the fan in the back looks like a siren, that would get the cats going aswell.
leave it as it is, thers a lot of work gone into that.
maybe paint the wheels matt black to complete the look

I think this car would cause me nightmares at night, also would be scared to meet its creator one day in a dark empty road :s LOL
