Bearricksters Fast Attack's

Post by bearrickster »

Well I really want to build a Knight Beach Buggy like SHO's but I had 1/2 of the money saved and the wife said she needed it for bill's. isnt that the way it always happends :lol: but cant complain I have the best wife in the World. Since I dont work she still buys me a new toy at least twice a year, when we have extra money. so after some neg. I have been wanting one of these for well forever. so I orderd up a new one from Tower and she got the rest. the Beach Buggy will come soon. I am already starting a new fund. well I put it together so I can look at it and decide. do I want to do a Sand Rail or a Fast Attack??? I had some extra lights from my Buggy Champ so I put some on the roof. I hate decideing what color to paint anything :lol: well I had a nib Sport tuned motor it came with some bearrings I had a few so it has all but the two smaller bearrings on the center gear in the trans. I dont now why Tamiya would put in bearings for the wheels and not the trans where it really needs them? So they will be put in when I blow it appart for paint.

I think I am really digging the Sliver for the color, I will still need to paint it since its just bear plastic. just needs a little detailing and some extras. Here are the wheels I think are going to end up on it. I like the AJ's tires on it also with their ballooned size it looks fuller. what do you think??

and Yes I am building a Airplane in the back ground

I was just playing around with my Toykid bumper I bought for my Sand Scorcher, but it was to short for it. I think it looks pretty good on here.

Yes it is, I only wish I had more money to buy more of it. I have one of his motors on my Sand Schorcer and exhaust coming in this week for it. along with another motor for my Buggy Champ.

well I painted it up with a two color silver I like the color. and after looking at a bunch of reference on the internet I decaled it up. not sure I like them so glad I didnt clear over them as they might come off. I am still painting the driver but I need to order a new driver head not happy with the Army one for a Desert Racer

A wild one head would look just right on the Fav body. I'm not livening the round 537 number plate. I think it would look better squared off. Might be able to do it with a hobby knife without having to remove the sticker

a wild one head is just was what I was thinking. their is one on the way as we speak. yea I am not felling the decals at all, their what I had. I have squaire numbers I may try them over to see if that looks better. I was going to wait till I have the driver finished and installed before I mad any harsh decisions on the decals. I kinda liked it plain just silver.

Working on the interior I had a extra Wild Willy gear shift so I put it on their. it came with this little tiny one that was in a place that would be impossible to shift in real life so I cut the second shifter lever off and drilled a hole poped it on. I drilled all of the little holes out on the steering wheel. the dash decal was nice so I used it.
