Sweet! Always loved the koala/kangaroo and most of all the Dolphin!

Thanks! I only learned of the dolphin 4x4 in the past year or so, and never knew about the wildebeast truck till I saw the ad. Now I own onebof then also.

Damn, $12 bucks after 11 bids?? That's a steal for 2 vintage cars! I remember selling the Kangaroo at the hobby store I worked at in the mid-80's. It wasn't much of a car, honestly, but it sure makes an intriguing resto project nowadays!
