    Old Ford I decided to work on,I ended up parting it out for other cars and decided to screw with it. I cut the filler panels out between the hood and fender. I'm not sure if I will use the hood or not. Putting a 1/6 Flathead in it, should be cool when it gets done.

    Thanks, I think it came out pretty cool. I'm repainting the Willys a different color. I dont like the way it looks.

    Here is a little better picture of the red 54. I also have been working on the pin up that will go with this car. The doll has a bunch of old school tattoo designs from Ed Hardy and Sailor Jerry Should be cool when it's done.

    Hey sorry to hijack this thread but I have a very important question.
    Where can I find a remote and wheels for the 36 Ford West Coast Chopper rc???

    I picked one up for a good price but the guy never had the remote or wheels on it. everything else is there and appears to work but I cant tell unless I can get my hands on a remote.

    Please send me any information you might have, I'd love to get this thing going.


    Thanks, John

    I have the wheels but the controller is going to be very hard to find.Without the controller they are just a giant model and or used as parts. I have never seen a controller for sale on ebay or Cl.

    Is there any other controller I could use or one from a similar model that may work? Last I heard the company went under so I can't even contact them, is this correct?

    Yes, they went out of business a few months after the 54 Chevy and 36 Ford were made. I don't know if another controller would work. If you were to find one that would work you wouldn't be able to adjust the air bags on the car and will get high centered very easily. You will have to find a controller that is 49MHz.

    Are the controllers the same for the 54 and 36? The 54 Chevy goes for cheaper do they not?

    There are plenty of 49MHz controllers on Ebay.
    I have now had 3 of the 1/6 scale Willys sent to me downunder.
    2 are blue and 1 is red.
    It costs me about $80.00 USD to get them sent by USPS grrrrrr

    The Chevy controller will not work. Different MHz, I cant say for sure whether or not another controller will work. But I know you wont be able to control the bags.
