Retro 2 Tone BC
All the chassis & running gear is as standard. Wheels have been painted in Audi alloy silver not sure wether to paint the tyres or not. The shell is painted 2 tone in custom mixes of metallic brown & metallic gold/green for that retro look. The idea for the pinstripe towards the bottom of the shell came from fellow TC member 'Wyoming' (thanks for the idea!). Great build, love the metal parts, makes it feel solid! The shocks were a pain (probably not right but i'll know when I run it), I think everyone has had a problem with these. The decals were tricky but practice makes perfect as they say! Got 2 more shells to paint after this is complete, so going for more 2-tone paint scheme's whilst trying to be different from everyone else...

That is one cool looking Buggy Champ. Love the colors and you've done such a superb job painting. Awesome job.

Very original and nice colour combination.I would try to paint the rims (white) as the shell or give it some nice alloy's wheels.Will make it perfect.

The wheels have been painted in Audi alloy silver, but real alloys would look the business (it's just a matter of cost that's all).

Is that a driver I see in there. This is my favorite buggy champ or even RR ive seen so far the colours suit it down to the ground
