Are you gonna paint the shell to a different color or keep it green?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=on3D5FdotHc&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Really amusing vw race. They had to stop every time they cross the start line to execute a "wheelie" for a specified distance and had to turn back if incomplete. Couldn't stop laughing the first few laps!

Status: offline 		as some of you may remember, I started to build a Ww 4x4 some time ago. I think the project has taken over 2 years so far. Now I was working on the last part, the body..  I got stuck in a creative block... I didn't know what the body should look like. It wassen't going to be true scale but my idea was to get it somewhat original looking. What is left now is to put the body on the chassis and paint some polished chassis parts as they no longer look good together with the body

oh and for the WW connaiseurs... let's have a pop quizz : let me hear all odd things you notice about the body...

Status: offline 		I designed the grill in a 3d designing program, then had it printed via shapeways...

http://www.shapeways.com/model/103110/wild-willy-2-grill.html

that is also how I did the axe and shovle

if you want one, it should be possible to order one there as well... the grill is mainly glued in place..

Status: offline 		Looks like there will be another WR-02 coming out soon!! Nice!! (from TamiyaBlog post..)

58531 Suzuki Jimny (SJ30) Wheelie (WR-02)

And looks like there will be a CVD setup for Willy finally!

54394 WR-02 Universal Shaft Set

Hopefully it will be tough enough, though.. WR-02 is very rough on the driveshaft due to lifting wheels up and spinning and then smash down and stop the rotation instantly..

Hope the Jimny comes out in hard plastic.

We will see!!

Would be interested to see what Tamiya come out with.. I assume it would be different than the one they have for the M-chassis? No idea..
