2nd time viewing this video. I noticed last night that Sand Scorcher bodies were back in stock so I ordered one and the Spare Time Hobbies chassis. Pretty excited about building a bugger so I’m binge watching all of your videos on Dippy this morning.
Please more coverage on the mullet chassis Matt. Just got done with watching your 19k. What's a km? God your in great shape to just get up and go run it non stop. Awesome videos Matt.
I just ordered a UTB18 and knew there would be some mods shortly but I have a long time love of Baja bugs and seeing your build I just ordered the 3d print files and I don't even have the buggy yet! Love the build !!!
The full part mullet is going to be awesome. Yes.... the front axle should be offset. But.... Who cares. It's still cool. I watching kpops video next hahaha. The bug conversion on the utb18 is perfect. What a change eh. Great video man.
Love the Bugs!. I have a few myself. The most recent on an MST CFX chassis. Still have another Scorcher body so may have to look into a UTB18 and Sparetime Hobbies chassis.
That (oh) bugger kit looks amazing! I have one on the list but other projects need to come first. As for that Hilux? I'd love to see what another commenter suggests, an 80s show truck paint job complete with neon colors and pin stripes
My bugger chassis has arrived in the UK and I've just got the UTB18 donor. I just need to get in the loft and retrieve my blitzer beetle for the body. I can't wait to get going but I've got a workshop to assemble first, this should be the first build in my new man cave. What wheels and tires have gone with, I'm just a bit worried they might rub, the website seems to imply that it's too heavy for the stock foams as well. Love the little painting tips, keep them coming. 👍
Absolutely love the 69 1/2 and the license plate as well!!! I need to come up with some clever plate options. I don’t like bugs but seeing yours makes me wanna build one lol Great content as always brother!!
Killer work! I built 3 sandscorchers on capra cages, 2 with ar44s and the third with an ar44 and element ifs grafted on. They are all a blast to run! Next up im swapping my tamiya yj build to the utb18 portals and finishing it this time..
the sand scorchers looks so good, i hadn't considered doing to a UTB 18, but i ahcve done it to a 1/10 Capra. keep up the great work, it's all very inspiring .
Small thing Matt! I wish that you would please re-install the whale tail on your Porsche build hanging in the background of your studio. I really like the look of the fully dressed version of your build. Just saying!
The m-jet is awesome! I've made a few mods for mine that really helped and should be in the mods folder when you download it. I'd highly recommend the ride plate and my bilge pump hull, which has worked well for me.
What would you guys think if traxxas came out with a 1:16 XO-1? That might compete with those WLToys and RRollo or whatever’s. If they did it right it would be a lot of fun.
Awesome work on the Bug. How well does it perform? I have been thinking about converting my UTB18, but I was thinking more of trying to use that chassis and do a mini-chopra with it. Current hold up is an unexpected expenditure on my daily car, so the hobby will have to wait a bit.
Poor Dippy. What did he even do? Okay, Since you've done two of the same kind of vehicles lately as I have, Ford & Beetle, does this mean you're going to do a Land Rover D110 next? Because that's what I'm working on now.
Love the content. Very educational. Need some advice. I have been looking at getting a scale crawler. I currently have a fully custom scx24, a TRx4m bronco, and a 1/10 traxxas slash 2wd. I want a bigger crawler rig mainly because rock crawling is technical. My question for u Matt, wut would u suggest as a starter rig? The traxxas TRX-4, Axial scx10iii, or the vanquish fordyce? Any advice would be much appreciated. Keep making amazing videos. Thanks
Me: This mini Capra is staying stock, I’m just gonna keep it like it is maybe change the cage to black instead of grey. You: Look at this keen little chassis to change the Capra to a bug. Me: Dammit that looks too cool not to do it, I ordered the chassis it the same day. It would be great to see how you did yours, did you go 3 link or servo on axle? What rims and hubs all that good stuff
If you go back through the episodes of this show, I go through the majority of the setup. It's currently 4 link servo on axle, but I'll be transitioning to 3 link CMS ASAP. Vanquish Tanks on a narrow hub. Cheers!
Interior tub from Knight Customs? I don't remember there being an option for that when I ordered, as this wasn't ever intended for this build. Sorry I can't be of more assistance but that build was a long time ago now for me!

Sorry not sorry 😂
Beetle looks so good.
Get burning hot, Press into hole and wiggle... Gap is filled. 😳 You are so good at filling Gap you must be very experienced! l😅 BTW Shippy and Bleepers look freakin sweet!!!

I love this! I must start immediately....
Great tip on the oil pen weathering technique
Glad it was helpful!

19km is like 10-11 miles if memory serves me correctly
Still waiting on that drift content bro. Wanna see that Subaru sliding already!!!
Soon my friend! In the editing bay as I type!
@@scalebuildersguild sick!!! I can’t wait brother!!
I just ordered a UTB18 and knew there would be some mods shortly but I have a long time love of Baja bugs and seeing your build I just ordered the 3d print files and I don't even have the buggy yet! Love the build !!!
Awesome! Good luck with the build!
Bought a sandscorcher body today need to sort chassis etc out. Already have a paint scheme in mind.sort of
Cool! Enjoy it!
THAT'S SO AWESOME!
Thanks!!
Nice work, as always! The boat dig at Josh was funny, too.
Always killing it! Hope all is well Matt 🤙
Thank you! Everything is great here, hope you're well too!
I luv that bug!!!
Bug came out awesome sounds like wall e
Awesome video. I love that UTB 18. I really need to get one of those beetle kits. I hope they can ship to the UK.
The full part mullet is going to be awesome.
Yes.... the front axle should be offset.
But....
Who cares.
It's still cool.
I watching kpops video next hahaha.

Awesome bugs.

Great video guy👍
I luv? er ... like the scale like building stuff👍and I'm thinking that I might have learned some things 🤔
Thanks for watching!
Like button energized
Thanks!
love the window netting. I also do 3d printing. sorry but im going to steal your ideal. Thank you for the great work and videos.
Go for it! I was pretty pleased with the finished product.
The buggies are beautiful! I like both, but I think 69.5 is my favorite! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I would 💯 do that to a UTB18! I need to order everything to make it a reality!
I'd love to do a "smokey" 710 bug, dabs everywhere. Funds...it's always funds😢😅😂
Hopefully the boat lasts longer than the snowmobile!🙂
Love the Bugs!. I have a few myself. The most recent on an MST CFX chassis. Still have another Scorcher body so may have to look into a UTB18 and Sparetime Hobbies chassis.
Cool!
Love this episode! Great tips and just ordered my Proxxon
Enjoy!
The bug turned out awesome
There is a hilux running around my town that is done in jungle camo and I think it looks perfect
Cool!
That (oh) bugger kit looks amazing! I have one on the list but other projects need to come first.
As for that Hilux? I'd love to see what another commenter suggests, an 80s show truck paint job complete with neon colors and pin stripes
Just finished my bugger, so yeah, I’d totally do that to a UTB18…thanks for all the great content.
Thanks for watching!

Wheels are Vanquish KMC Tanks. Tires are PL BFG Class 0 tires. I'm not using the stock tires or foams, and you shouldn't either!
I’m doing one waiting on the body
Absolutely love the 69 1/2 and the license plate as well!!! I need to come up with some clever plate options. I don’t like bugs but seeing yours makes me wanna build one lol Great content as always brother!!
Thanks! Go for it!
Turned out fantastic! Very well done, totally forgot about the oils trick! Got to get some on my 4Runner 👌
Thank you!
I love the bug. Makes me want to make one.
Go for it!
I have the spare times hobbies kit, just got to get a utb 18 now.
Killer work! I built 3 sandscorchers on capra cages, 2 with ar44s and the third with an ar44 and element ifs grafted on. They are all a blast to run! Next up im swapping my tamiya yj build to the utb18 portals and finishing it this time..

The reason I watch this show is for Matt’s extremely handsome good looks.
Back off, I'm married 😂!
Small thing Matt! I wish that you would please re-install the whale tail on your Porsche build hanging in the background of your studio. I really like the look of the fully dressed version of your build. Just saying!
Glad you're paying attention! Keeps me on my toes!
Paint it like one of the lifted truck in those 80’s truck magazines
I have ordered parts for my version of shippy and hope to start the project soon..always had a soft spot for VW one of my first cars.
Enjoy it!
The m-jet is awesome! I've made a few mods for mine that really helped and should be in the mods folder when you download it. I'd highly recommend the ride plate and my bilge pump hull, which has worked well for me.

Was that a Jay and Silent Bob reference? The unwritten rules of the road, lol.
40 year old virgin
If it was, it wasn't intentional!
Nice rig the details are awesome but I was wondering what you did to the shocks
Nothing, stock!
Scale do it by yourself guild! 😂
Now do a drift bug 👍🏼😁
The scale like build... 😂😂😂😂
What would you guys think if traxxas came out with a 1:16 XO-1? That might compete with those WLToys and RRollo or whatever’s. If they did it right it would be a lot of fun.
I would build one but I’m a wee peasant and I’m 5 projects deep so a mini Capra will have to wait🥲
You could cut that center support off from the windshield and glue it into the hole on the hood if they are a similar diameter?
Yep, that works too. Because I've cut away so much of the body, I can't remove that piece yet.
@@scalebuildersguild sounds like you need Josh to whip up a roll cage
That sans scorcher turned out really nice, what’s going on with the cucv though been waiting on that one to get finished.
It keeps getting pushed, but I resolved to get it done before the snow falls!
I only watch the show for the intro dance and music.
Awesome work on the Bug. How well does it perform?
I have been thinking about converting my UTB18, but I was thinking more of trying to use that chassis and do a mini-chopra with it. Current hold up is an unexpected expenditure on my daily car, so the hobby will have to wait a bit.
So far so good. I'll be giving it a proper test this week. Cheers!
i want to try a bugger build but building skills aren't the best. a build video would be awesome. great job
Love the Dippy Bug.
Did you do a full build series?
Not really, but I cover a lot of it in previous episodes of this show!
Awesome! So the tiny snippy?
6.9
A great thing ruined by a period.
Poor Dippy. What did he even do? Okay, Since you've done two of the same kind of vehicles lately as I have, Ford & Beetle, does this mean you're going to do a Land Rover D110 next? Because that's what I'm working on now.

Can't really go wrong with any of those choices!
awesome as usual, did you make the net for the back window or find it online?
I made it. Measured and then designed in Fusion 360. Thanks!

Great looking projects. Maybe suggest those who download free STL files leave a small tip for the creator.
Thanks for the tip!
Nah you didn’t out do yourself broski. Mullets rule
Did you watch 40 year old virgin before this episode?
If my math serves me right having a boat completed by next week means it would be on next week’s edition of What’s on the Bench Weekly.
😂
.69 is perfect for the little one! Maybe that one will be "Sippy" as in sippy cup... since its a little one...
Ha!
What’s the little Baja bug?? I need one!
Links are in the description! Spare Time Hobbies Bugger Chassis.
Do you have a part # for the proxxon? Im looking at the model building and engraving set on Amazon.
Sure do: www.proxxon.com/us/micromot/38481.php
@@scalebuildersguild thank you kind sir
I ordered the element knight runner thinking I would get SGB stickers but it didn’t gone with any 😔😔
Sorry, none in that one!
Wait, wait, wait- he's goijg to build AND drive it? Yup, hell's gonna freeze over y'all. And by hell, I mean San Francisco...
Sorry if its been said but i can only find this video and the running video of your bugger. Is there a build series i cant find?
It was built in a lot of WOTB episodes, so you'll have to go through those! Ep55 has some stuff, and I'd go back from there.
@@scalebuildersguild I am ordering the interior tub and was trying to determine if I need the high clearance version
Interior tub from Knight Customs? I don't remember there being an option for that when I ordered, as this wasn't ever intended for this build. Sorry I can't be of more assistance but that build was a long time ago now for me!
Why the difference in color between the front and back on the BRX-02?
Just you wait!😀
@@scalebuildersguild LOL. That Landie looks awesome Matt. I will wait though :)
Where can I get scale sbg stickers at I only see big one on the site
I'll be releasing a bumper sticker set in a few weeks, so stay tuned!
🤘☕️🤘
🤘
i want to convert my utb but the time isnt right money wise im using my budget for rc on my vanquish lol
What wheels are on the Bug?
Vanquish KMC Tanks with Skarn rings.
Woo-hoo! 69th like!! Winning 😅😅
! year later im building one
Glad to hear it!
Do u have any pets bud? 👍
Yep! 2 cats and a giant black dog!
A lil Dab will do ya
Since you brought up Kpop ,, I saw that vid as well.. are you guys related?
Not related, but you're not the first person to say we look alike!
i dig the performance stuff... but the interior stuff gets cheesy when people put little figurines in the model...
.69 would be hilarious
No Matt, nobody listens to the plea of like-ifications
.69 for the little one is perfect
Just an FYI. A 69 1/2 is like a 69 but you also use your nose. Not really, just made that up. ha
I thought a 69 1/2 is when one of the involved is much taller.
😂
😂
Do yourself a favor don't print in abs. Print in asa!
ABS is working well for me now, I'll give ASA a try too!
Why would you write that on your car? It does not look very good.
I guess you're not in on the joke!
