City collection
Anyone who knows me probably knows that I'm a bit mad. That's especially true with the Tamiya Wild Willy 1 & 2, and Willy's Wheeler / Honda City Turbo. A recent FB discussion prompted me to share some pics of my Wheeler / Honda City collection.
So here they are.
The Willy's Wheeler is a complete vintage car except for the decals which are a mix of re-re and repro. I don't care, love it anyway!
The rest are more of a mixed bunch than they look. Most of them were built from separately acquired parts rather than kits, if you know what I mean.
Even then, there's still some variety. The plain white car was a conversion built before the City Turbo was released. The blue car is a Wheeler body on a Honda chassis. The Ken Block style car has a MF-01X chassis. The rest are pretty straight forward, obviously a few hop-ups and some personal touches, just because it had to be done.
Putting these together, I'm lucky to have benefitted from the kindness of others, both on Tamiya Club and FB. Some of the guys have been massively helpful and massively generous, and I am massively grateful.
I'm gonna stop waffling now!
Hope you like them,
Cheers,
Rob

Thank you all for such awesome comments.
@ hi-pe70 You're very kind but you're giving me far too much credit. I'm no legend (couldn't handle the pressure!) I'm just a numpty having fun.
@ J@mes So I'd better keep my last unused body set in the box for now. Wouldn't want anyone thinking I'm totally crazy...!
