There's a 'cottage industry' company called Kamtec who advertise and trade on Ebay, who do 1/10 Bowler Wildcats - also Bentley Continentals ...
Not sure of anyone going 'Large Scale'.

Chris, obviously you found the same company.
Love that Tamiya kit - pity it wasn't 60% bigger, and made a different noise .... !!

vassilisG where does all this work go on .......do you have computer

controlled machines to make your hubs and drives/diffs it looks s though

you have a large room to work in.......i like the way you jig up the tubes

for your chassis simple but it works

A small lab can help a lot . This is my lab .






... and I have not any computer controlled machines .Co . Co .Machines ,always steals the enjoy .

 

[vassilisG]

Gotmy prices wrong there Chris,just watched the vid again and its £50.000,still a steal!
J.

 

[zouz10]

$80000 is still not too bad. Is that new or used?


Chris

 

[atom3624]

According to Top Gear of whenever that was aired, that was the UK price.
5 litre V8 'Rover/Trevor' (ex Buick) engine.
NEW!!
Would YOU want one of these USED? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[zouz10]

Come to think of it, after it's someone raced the piss out of it, i might not want one of these used.. LOL

Still too rich for my blood. But a guy can always dream.:sleeping:



Chris

 

[atom3624]

Watch the vid.
Even 'the Hampster' bashes it a tad.
There's another where Top Gear challenge a downhill skier, horse, or something.
A Mitsu Evo VI cannot keep up, as it can't jump.
The Wildcat does!!

 

[voo2doo]

Takes three weeks to build the chassis! by hand!
