Re: Tamiya BigWig Resto Project
CRIKEY!
What a state!
I recently built a Bigwig up by buying every parts tree and screw bag new off eBay!
It's nearly done-All brand new from the chassis and sub chassis up,and a Team Bluegroove body (grab one!!).
Just need some new rear shock bodies and tires and wheels.
NIP decal sheet in the post.
Oh,and a press parts bag for the roof...Damn second hand Technigold bugging me,too!

Re: Tamiya BigWig Resto Project
hey hey,
been a while since i been on here, managed to get a bit of an update with this one, was in a horrid state before but now looking not too bad...!
Paint removed (using old school elbow grease..)
check out the 'xhaust! these were missing when i got it!
scratched underside though i am not paying the ebay premiums for a new tub! rest of underside is quite good...
still need a new set of wheels...
FLouder - thats sweet, did you even buy a 2nd hand one off ebay or did you build it straight from the ground up? I've managed to get most of the old paint off the body so not gonna buy another, well for the moment anyway.
In the process of trying to sort out the TechGold but easier said than done, though still looking for the sub chassis!
where'd you get your decals from, i sourced from the 'bay, u know elsewhere? also need to source wheel & tire combo's, any good suggestions? Still not sure what to do with this one, vintage runner or shelfer? or sell it to fund my recent purchases/upcoming purchases
