I have my original from late 70’s. I’m hoping to build this one, and have the part numbers needed to repair my original of parts are available, if not, I’ll just be bringing back 40 year memories and that works for me as well. It was one of my first hobby type RC vehicles. Was really into slot cars back then, but free driving was way funner. This kit appears to be the same, but I haven’t built it yet, just opened it up to drool a little.

Building this brought back memories. It was a delight to assemble, and nearly everything is made of metal. It’s beautifully designed, and the instruction manual is excellent.

Im just starting my build. Amain made sure I received fast shipping and Im very pleased. I have a bunch of aftermarket parts as I plan on doing a complete interior to this VW. I have my paint already purchased. I should be finished by 100% by April. I do not like to rush my builds. It leads to poor quality.

I am so happy with AMain that it has become my defacto Go-To for anything RC related. Only about 10% of specialized parts do I need to go to a different place.

I plan on buying all my stuff here from now on. I have about 50 RCs and items in my wish list and Im going to buy them all here at AMain.

Thanks.

Awesome RC car if you're into vintage models. It is a tedious build which is the reason we buy these Tamiyas, and its the best part of having one. Putting time and effort into it for the passion of the hobby. All I have to say is it is worth the price because they wont be around forever. So if you are timid in paying for one, JUST DO IT! You wont regret it I promise.
