yeah, just my dream of childhood too.....those afternoon watching "chips".....playing playmobil....dreaming that tamiya sand scorcher that i bought years later.....
and then i remember one evening, i was maybe 7 or 8, on vacation on the seaside with my family, near venice, all those soft sand beaches....and a blue metalflake deserter stopped near a supermarket....and i went to look with my father.....ah guys....it impressed my mind.....those large wheels...sand everywhere...stickers and fried exhaust.....when i went to do these photos i realized on of my dreams....

i know you can understand me when i tell you i went one hundred times walkin on that river beach dreamin the car was finished.....

You are talking about the Sand Scorcher?

Right now we make a childhood dream for a lot of people come true.
We here at the Bugbox build a real size Sand Scorcher plus a huge remote control.
There are just four little details we changed in comparison to the box art, everything else is there - including the Padla Trak tyres.  8)

If you want to see it for real, come to the Volksworld Show, it will be there!
Cheers,

Georg

You can follow the build up here:
