Default Who's got a Wild Willy?

Lets see what you guys have done with your Tamiya Wild Willy. I picked mine up at a car show about 6 weeks ago. Here are the before and after pictures.

Honestly its not just this thread. This forum is dead. Nothing happens here. Im on 2 other forums with new posts non stop. Why does this one seem so slow?

I have an original mint WW i may sell for the right price. If your uncle is serious send me an email address and ill send pix and info on it.

Got one of them too. 1947 frame off resto. not for sale though.

There are a few original wild willy kits on ebay. Everyone asks big money but they rarely sell. A clean original complete truck is worth about $400-$500 built. I dont see un built kits bringing $2000+ but who knows.

Hey I know this is late but I have an original wild willy. It's never seen outside and it has less then one pack on it. It's clean and all stock. And its for sale or trade.

I have a WW2, but that's close enough.
