Very nice mate thats looking lovely!!! What colour are you going to do the shell? G30?! lol
 
It arrived yesterday 🤣 ill get some pics tomorrow mate.... I bloody love it.

Used Chemical Guys tyre dressing on the Blackfoot tyres, came up like new! lol Annoyed with the one rear being the wrong way around, looks like the previous owner glued them on! Love mine too bud, although the front suspension is very sloppy to how I remembered it back in the 80's!

Might have to try that out @Richard Fox
Ive been a bit gutted with my monster beetle buy... The manual speed controller burnt out on first use, so I've treated it to a full electrical rebuild... New servo, speed controller and receiver and transmitter. I've given the body shell some fresh paint (not the best job ever 😂) Now one of the tyres has split 😭
 
Oh my god I think this guys got to much time on his hands! PMSL

Check this guys 1/10 Diorama's out! The detail is fantastic.... I'm definitely going to have a go at building a garage on the next lockdown 🤣

 
Still love this guys work! 4.36 mins in WTF! lol

 
I have an old tamiya ta01 mercedes DTM. The kids love running it round an empty (closed) car park.
I keep thinking about getting them something newer, but that thing it pretty indestructible 😀

This is my latest RC also a TA01 chassis just like the one in the video below but with the correct OZ alloys...

That was fecking amazing...especially love the rubbish bags and old GTX can in the bin...that's what sets the bar with dioramas, the little details. This guy has taken it to a whole new level.
 
Maybe something like this could be set up for the next Elgrand meet! lol


 
Little by little moving forward, waiting for a switch to add to the car between the controller and battery before trimming the plastic off the body shell and then painting it, excuse the mess in my office/junk/ shop come office ;o)))))
