Thanks for the compliments. The rear is stronger.

Wild Willy( aka Mike Hunt LOL) is ready to go. Still need to finish the panels and hood.
Also painted the fire exstiquisher.








Hope to have more soon.

Heh there you are wondered what you were up to.
That guy looks pretty good in there actually! One crafty guy might even be able to fashion up a thin seat maybe?
Tomorrow brings a few more goodies for me, got a green light to finish off my vp items

I need a thin seat. Know anyone?
Oh yeah on the VP goodies.

Will have more pictures tomorrow.

nice shawn. Looks good bub.

love wild willy! he actually looks pretty good in there if you put some gas pedal extensions in there

So wheres them vp products I think I saw sitting in a box when I was last there? lol be heading there here soon today if I can get my head to clear up a bit dam cold!
Saw you sold some vp links while back ugh why?

I got a set of custom Delrin links.
I am trying not to bling it out. lol

Now i need to decide on a 4pl of 4pk. I might do 4ws after the summer. Any ideas?

Head cold huh? Same for all of us in this house. Started with the baby and now up to me...

Yea dam think kicked in yesterday well started as a sore throat all day then the head just got worse and worse lol.

Hmm on the radio, well im a spektrum guy (saw your selling the 3s to lol) I have a dx3s which I have loved till I see if I want to use a winch im screwed so may grab one of the lesser ones 3e or c which if your on a budget those arent bad radios either. I am not a futaba fan but seems alot like those 4pl's...my choices lol

Looks good....now....has anybody seen Mike Hunt???

Make your own out of lexan (TAP Plastics has sheets of all thickness for cheap)...or cut and fold some thin sheet aluminum. Driver looks great in red!

Finally someone got it. Lol

lmao. I get it now. took a few tries.

That's one of my favorites from back when. LOL

Okay a couple updated pics. Installed the VP knuckles, damn they are awesome.
Still have to order VP chubs.
Make a seat for Mike Hunt. Lol
Find some one to make so kick ass decals. Want to have the drivers name and a couple Numbers.

Aluminum body panels and roof painted and the dinky hood.

Here you go.





Also got the idea to paint my radio box into a cooler.




That's it for right now.

I like the cooler idea. Rig looks great in those colors too.

Wow looks awesome man! Altho looks like someone has a shaky hand like me....the white strip around the cowl lol.
Might talk to mr.nate on here he does decals.
Oh on the rx box a guy at the lhs told me something he put a cooler lid from the proline scale pieces on the rx box and fits

i love the paint job for the "cooler"

looks good man. And that cage mod too. This is one of the few (and I mean very few) Wraiths that I like with the cage mod. You ever decide you're done with Willy let me know. I'd like to have one.
