Hey Peter, I do like a good project video, and this project is better than good. Loving the creamy white paint choice and the orange accents. Thanks for the tutorial on fitting light buckets to this shell, very interesting! Looking forward to seeing more, my friend. I gave Maisy a wave when she made her guest appearance! Cheers Peter! 😎👌👍
@@MarkBryanRC Hi Mark, thank you for the kind words, Maisie sits in front of the camera when it suits her so I've resulted in letting her do her own thing and then I'll carry on 😁 If I had chosen the 5mm light buckets then I would have had issues trying to get the light clusters joined to the rear wings but by using a smaller light bucket, the rear clusters will glue straight on with no issues and will still perform as they are supposed to 👍
Oh, that's a nice project, lots of real hobbyist work going into this! Interesting to see the subtle differences between these body shells, I did not know this... Yeah, I can imagine that speed competition is keeping you busy, he he... I promise I only have one more entry, then I am done. 😉
@@madsrcbuggy Hi Mads, out of the 3 projects I have started, this one is all bodywork and a chassis build so I thought I would show this one . The competition is in full swing so haven't really got much time for this project but will eventually get there 👍
@@RCBirds Thanks Dirk, a new member of the Blitzer Brigade is being born 👍 Next video it should be in Primer and have a part built chassis to be sitting on 🤘
You know that you've had fun with a car when it sheds its paint buddy! That Green one reminds me of Kermit the frog with those curves and big round eyes! Cheers for the GH shout mate..... quite fitting as apparently Taylor likes a hard body(ooh er!), his marriage to moo moo is just a front..... I think secretly he bat's for the other side! 😂 I do love the Blitzer, it's a great kit.... Infact I still have moo moos one here to repair from our Tescos sessions where burger baps kurbed it and broke the steering! 🤷♂️ 🙄 The sand scorcher body plan sounds delightful mate, it has Peter Smith written all over it as a project if you ask me! And funnily enough, I've actually chosen that 'cum' white Tamiya spray for half of my vw bus shell that you got me! (more on that over the Autumn once running season draws to a close!) Great minds think alike eh?! Looks like Maisey and Onyx have much in common..... Both love getting on camera and featuring on UA-cam! 😂 👍 👍 👍
@@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC Oh yes, you need a Blitzer in your life as well. I've got a convertible lined up as well for the Blitzer Crew so that Kermit and the Pickup aren't as lonely. I've got various Creations in TS-7 which blends pretty well when you do a two-tone paint job 👍 Convertible vid coming soon 🤘
@@theadventuresoflario Thank you my friend. As soon as the DT-02 Competition has finished, this Beetle should be completed and ready for its maiden voyage along with the other Blitzer family members 👍
@@EMPTYPOCKETSRC Thank You my friend, out of the 3 projects I have on the go and hosting the DT-02 Competition, this one is the closest to getting in primer 👍
@@PeteWylieRC Thanks Pete, I've always wanted a Sand Scorcher but not at the price they are for a kit so I opted for the cheaper version of just the bodyshell (tight git) and therefore I am putting a mild twist on the finished article. More coming soon 👍
@@Fortes_RC_Adv Thank You my friend, I am slowly working on this project when I'm not keeping up to date with the DT-02 Speed Competition 👍 Hopefully after the competition ends, I will be able to get this finished in time for me start on another long-awaited project that has been sitting in its own box from about 2 months ago 🤣😆✌️
Sounds very interesting and I am super curious to what it is going on now! LOL! Looking forward to seeing how it turns out, I am sure you are gonna nail it and it will be super cool!
@@AddamsPlayground Thank you my good friend Addam, it will sit on its very own Blitzer chassis. Wait until you see the red one that is also coming along nicely 👌 The DT-02 Competition is taking up most of my time so this gets about half hour attention every couple of days...👍🤘✌️

Hey nice project young man. You can't go wrong with a Tamiya Beetle. I'm sure you will do a splendid job 😁👍👍
