There was a one-day-only Tower sale recently, and I got too good a deal to pass up on this:




And this Grasshopper arrived to join the others:

At this point I just need a Clod Chrome and a Bullhead to complete the Clod chassis madness!

I have a vintage new built bullhead body somewhere in my father's loft. I puted it on my  clod a lot of time before the rere and the  resto of my clod. I received it from tamiya ondawara before the internet. The order was made by fax👴👴👴

I love the kaido and missed a clod for 20 € on a second hand site. I hadn't the budget.

  Oops!I suddenly got this in the mail 😬It will be interesting to see if I can get another one to build😅

 

After acquiring enough ORV parts I put together a Frog last year, as near to original as possible.
Any way I was missing that small metal bracket to fit the resistors onto the gear case.
So yes I bought this when I eventually saw one come up on eBay.

 

I also bought this from the gent who’s chosen to produce quite a few bits 3D printed for the Cheetah. These attach between the body and roof.
They were a reasonable price so I bought them to compare to the originals. I have a few of the Cheetah bodies to finish ( 5, I think unless I’ve got any hiding in the garage ???? ). So they’ll get used at some point.

Had something similar when I was young....
Truck is about 12 inches long..

UPS was good to me today. I got a box full of NOS Thorp, Lunsford, RPM, Trinity and CRP parts for the ORV chassis. Too much stuff to take pictures of right now so here's a few hi lights.

After a long wait , I was very glad when this one arrived...... I don't have to tell this crowd what this is!!!
