Very cool!

There's a video of a different 1:1 Wild Willy replica on youtube going through mud and water, but I can't seem to find it. I stumbled on it by accident a few years ago, but haven't been able to find it since.

also check this link. the attention to details is awesome. the scorcher that this guy built was bought by mr. tamiya himself for a unknown amount of money. mr. tamiya told walter to put any number on the price tag that he wanted. this wild willy has been sold to master collector oliver from hamburg, germany (the guy with that incredible collection)

Seeing the build pictures makes it just that much cooler. I found some more completed ones: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=114181&id=30516
