I'm very happy to present u all my running Willy!!
It's like a dream that came true, i bought it on ebay in good used condition but with some works to do.
I completely stripped it down cleaned and greased every part.
I put in a Futaba radio and a FUTABA MC 230 CR ESC with reverse and made an hump pack (thanks a lot to my friend Gio for the big help he gave me...).
Completey stripped and repainted the driver, back wheel, petrol can, winch, NOS bottle and the details on the body that are not painted (A big thanks to my girlfriend!!).
Drive it it's like a time warp, i'm 13 again, the willy is fast and incredibly smooth (nearly no transmission noise...) and makes lovely weelies. :)

UPDATE: Just finished to put bearings (flanged and normal) in all the transmission, charged a battery and tested.
I'm really happy for the results, the willy is faster (a lot........) and has a longer run time.
RATING: ***** ( a thing to do on your runner).
