WOW! I love it! The second set of wheels gets my vote.. Love the gold chassis. These are such a great buggy.

Beautiful example of one of Tamiyas best looking cars (imo). Loving the buggy edition Proline Sand Paws too! Will be buying a few of those and no mistake.

Awesome build - nice work! I've been wanting to do this for a while now (either w/ a WW on FAV) and am busy searching for a suitable candidate. Rims in the top two pics get my vote.

Beautiful job Mr duke. You can't go wrong with either wheel combo, but maybe save the first lot for show time, and the second lot for the go time

Absolutely Stunning! Love it that you painted the chassis in body color. Very cool color scheme. SH shocks! Great idea. You ve inspired me. Did you encounter any issues fitting the SH shocks?
First set of wheels gets my vote. What type are they?? I want them too, seriously.
Compliments!!

Where did Ray get those normal sized hands from? He must have had some sneaky plastic surgery! Did you have to do any mods to stop the front shocks rubbing the chassis? I've got some to fit to mine, but the lower mounts are very close in...

Mr duke

WOW!!! thanks guys for the awsome comments Hi Jorisschulte, Gruntfuggly no real probs fitting shocks with the front ones i had to re-locate the position of the shock just under the original mount but works well and the wheels are off the rc road runner found them on ebay

Ahhh, finally get to see it, looking very cool indeed. Same here, i`d have to agree with Max Power. Now this would look nice on the beach with those sand paddles in motion! Well done buddy!

Man, looks fantastic!! I love the second pair of wheels - paddle tires are the best choose for it! The rims are just awesome - you made a superb job, yes well done!
