Built the shocks this morning, I was surprised by the poor fitment of the front spring on the lower collar Added an O-ring which sorted it out Media blasted the electrics top cover, Servo mount and a set of lights before undercoating.

 

 

 

 

 

I remember having the exact same reflexion for the lower collar... I did it my way : using 3D printer . That being said, I'm not running the Wild One that much: the Turbo Scorpion is there for that

Finished detailing the lights and Fitted the servo to start figuring out how I want to route the wire, The Electrics cover is dry so I put it in too Big news today is the custom carbon fibre undertray is complete and in the post

 

 

 

The custom carbon chassis plates for the sand rail arrived today, I have run out of superlatives for his work

 

 

 

 

A little bit more, Secured the servo correctly and added some heat shrink to the wire. Made a P clip to to hold it in place and I'll use an extension to get it to the receiver

 

 

Fitted the gearbox and a Sports Tuned motor plus the 3D printed VW motor which was painted by the PO. Decided to add another alloy bar to the rear of the cage as I didn't like the lights, I just had to file some clearance in to the back side of the bar to allow for the end of the gearbox before brush polishing. Changed out the front spots for a nicer look, Next I need to finished setting up the steering. 😁

 

 
 

Looking fantastic!

Hella spotlights was the rave here in Norway in the 80s. My dad had them on his Beetle.
Good choice!

I love the vw motor with patina. And like said richard, the hella are awesome. 

Looks great so far. Love the color and the lights.

Thanks Lads, This is much an evolution so things can change hahaha. I think the VW motor still needs some details painted
