Thanks very much. The ones I remember from my childhood, I try to restore them to how I used to see them in the magazines if I can 👌

A little Saturday inspiration. It took me years to get my hands on a vintage Tamiya Clodbuster. Last year I finally managed it. With a bit of TLC I got it back to ship shape. Here’s a before & after #tamiya #tamiyauk #tamiyaclodbuster #monstertruck #restoration

Very cool Steve, I’ve never had the balls to have a go at flying something as I’d probably crash it 3 seconds later lol. Hope you get out with it

My first jump back into the RC world came with the Tamiya Blackfoot - a very different build to what I was used too. I set a mission to at least build one of ever chassis. Something years later I’m still aiming for #tamiya #tamiyauk #fordpickup #project

Monday Madcap - an easy restoration from earlier in the year. Always loved the look of this buggy. #tamiya #tamiyamadcap #tamiyauk

Thankyou very much. I just do my best with what skills I have. The top force is a rere but I’ve restored quite a few vintage ones in the past to standard that’s good enough for me :)
