I got my one for $100 with out radio gear. It seems the Willy is getting a cult following out there especially with the original Willy.

somebody called? :rolleyes:

seems to be recent Willy-mania in Japan too,
so to celebrate... dusted off the oldie i built 15yrs ago.



Stripped, cleaned & rebuilt with relubed bearings & gearbox.
Did some paint touchup, fresh painted winch & driver
& slammed the body down lower :eek:


then... Willy decided to go farming, wanted a tractor suited to his stature...




but before tractor got completed, this turned up & the Willy crew got busy...



now they can wheelie in BOTH directions! :D

I had an almost complete original Willy that I found on the rubbish tip. I gave it away.

Silly bugger!

'Fraid so, gold tub. Haven't bought any AE kits for like 25yrs
(come to think of it, it's the first AE 1/10th I've shelled out for)
thought I'd chime in see what the hype is all about.

Ain't found it yet :p

But no fear, I'll keep searching... black tub kit followed me home last wk. :D
(hey its cheaper to buy black kit than just the Stealth/CVDs/shocks separately)
I was undecided but the LHShopkeep is a cannily persuasive guy, what to do...
