This is my SS Beach Runner. It was used today at Weston-Super-Mare with Chef-bikes SS and Woppers RR. It ran great all day and was great fun.
I highly recommend this Vintage classic for beach running. It has some modifications added. A chassis plate from Twinset, CPR Dampers and springs, Sport Tuned motor, Tamiya ESC, Machined Aluminium SS Wheels( Available from me), Modified front bodypost with 10mm offset to accept a Monster Beetle body without drilling extra hole and weakening the front body and a Box art Front aluminium guard. The rear torsion bars have been removed and the front tension springs have also been removed. I have chosen this paint scheme just to be slightly
different and as a personal touch i have added the Cross of St. George and the flag of the Czech Republic on the bonnet. Hope you all like the home made number plates.

Superb looking car... great color choice. I never did like the box art colors on this car. Great detail on her and very nice clear photos to boot! Even made a VW look appealing to a pickup truck redneck guy like myself!

Absolutely fantastic looking Scorcher, nice job on the number plate and wheels, how much would a set of 4 cost? Just noticed the white outlining on the body - it's excellent! Pete

I think Petrolhead needs to quit watching teenie bopper shows. It's 'ab fab'? Who says that, a 14 year old? You've done a great job with this!
