Monster Willy Beetle

Post by tecnica2001 »

Here's my new rendition of the Monster Bettle after sitting for the past year without the body.

Bought a Wild Willie driver, just because they had it in the hobby shelf, didn't know what he was going to be driving, and did the same with the tires and wheels...just because they looked aggressive.....and long and behold.....The Monster Willie Beetle....

And just because Willy is driving, oversized side mirrors and a Jerry (spell check) can in between the mufflers, Why Not??😏

If that was real, that would be the worst place to put a jerry-can. :lol:

Any other Tamiya driver would put the cans on the side of the rig, but Willy is a risk taker....😜
