Bitza Beetle part 1 - now sold
Badboy, volksrod, toykid - this is your fault ! Thanks for the great custom cars you have on site, when I saw them I had to have a go. This is the first attempt, I didn't have the nerve to use good parts so most of this came from the spares box. The chassis is a Kyosho Alpha 2 modified to provide a working platform (thanks joelvardy, that kicked it off) The rest is Tamiya or hand made. There's a lot of work here, you will see mostly SS parts but other pieces from several different cars. Front and rear bars from that master of ally work 'lightningrapid' (front pinched from my Super Champ but it seemed right, I'll have to buy another !) Front track is increased by almost 40mm. Body is work in progress and will follow later. Hope you like it !!

I don't know how I missed seeing this!
When I got the spare chassis I did think of making it into a car but making an SS never struck me!
GREAT! - glad I got you a chassis to work with!
