Tamiya M 06 Volvo Amazon/122S

Great Volvo Del. This is what I like about Kamtec - they make car shells that other companies haven't even heard of, with the option of hard bodies too.

[@Del350K4]

Kamtec are brilliant, aren't they? I even like the fact that they don't provide stickers with every shell. I enjoy fashioning door handles and indicators and stuff for them.

Really great this Volvo, this model is top. In addition the tamiya M06 chassis is very good. Great run 👍

[@Del350K4]

Hello, Pascal! Thank you very much - I try to make occasional videos which showcase beautiful old classic cars : )

[@satorrotas]

@@Del350K4 It was very good 😉👍

[@alfatih99a17]

Thanks For Sharing.

[@theoagrc]

Great video Del! Love the creativenesses on that Volvo 😎

[@Del350K4]

Thank you! I enjoy finishing Kamtec shells as road cars rather than for banger racing, coming up with door handles and windscreen wipers etc.

[@jdpaslRC]

Very nice paint job. It ran smooth.

[@Del350K4]

Hello James - yes, when the camera, wasn't in use, I did drive it really fast, and it was great fun, but it reminded me that this M-06 dies need oil shocks. It would handle fine till I ran over a rough patch while turning...and then the rear end would overtake the front!

cool rc car,have a great day my friend

[@Del350K4]

Thank you, Duke! The Amazon is a rare old car, and not the usual subject for a KZbin video.

Good recycling job on that body, the wheels and tires look perfect for a vw beetle 🔵🔵🔵👍👍👍😀😀😀✔️✔️✔️🔵🔵🔵

[@Del350K4]

It's the Tamiya M-06 Beetle chassis!

@@Del350K4 You dismantle a VW to put together a Volvo??? You better regret of your sin my friend

[@Del350K4]

@@carloshnunez Ha ha! I have never finished building this kit! The Beetle body is still brand new, in the box with the chrom parts and the stickers - I hope to finish the kit this Sumner : )

Bellissimo Del 👍 Now who has the fertile imagination, eh? You have done a superb job of creating coolness alongside The Saint 👏👏 Well Done 👍

[@Del350K4]

Do you remember him? Wouldn't it be great if Kamtec did a P1800 shell? I do love finishing Kamtec classic car shells as road going vehicles rather than as banger racers. How are you? I thought of you the other day when I found a pair of Moggie Minor van shells I bought a few years ago, to use to make a Minor pickup. You and I do love our pickups, don't we?

[@RC3DPrintAdventure]

Great choice Del. I remember the Amazon well. I believe the early versions were 6 volt. So yours is probably even closer to scale there. Your right I don't remember the roof being quite so 'chopped', but it does have a meaner look as a result. Good choice of wheels & inventive details. A friend of mine used to have an Amazon & I'm sure I got a lift home in an estate version one New years. But that was a very blurry memory....😵

[@Del350K4]

I think they were 6 volt, so at 7.4 I'm pretty close to scale - "you're right there! I'd forgotten about the estate version. I'd love to have one now!

[@Georgieframe]

Yes, I like it! Very, very nice! 😊😊1966 I bought a mossgreen 122S with 90 hp and four speed gearbox plus electric overdrive. That was a fast car! 😈😈Think I sold it 1969, or I actually traded it for a Saab 95 2-stroke, that was a bit cheaper to own. Nice to see you like the Amazon!👍👍

[@Del350K4]

Hello! I know that this video will attract few views, but I suspect that it'll be the only RC Amazon vid on KZbin for a long time, and I wanted to show that not all old Volvos are rectilinear boxes! I'm glad you've owned an Amazon, and I bet that you wish you still had the 2 stroke Saab!

[@RCtime]

Nice job 💪🔥 I like classic/old cars 🚀💥😎

[@Del350K4]

Thank you! A video like this is never going to receive many views, but I think it's worthwhile to celebrate classic cars in RC form.

[@MarkBryanRC]

What a great short video, Del! You did a great job with that superb Kamtec body and the running footage was excellent. Have you changed cameras? It looks very crisp and bright. Top marks for the usual ingenuity, too! All the best, mate! :O)

[@Del350K4]

Hello, Mark. I'm sorry I haven't commented on your Escort video. I haven't watched it as I've been ill, (Covid or flu - not sure which) but I'm going to watch it as soon as I'm a bit better.

[@Del350K4]

It's the same camera - but I did rub my T shirt across the lens : )

[@MarkBryanRC]

@@Del350K4 Sorry to her you haven't been well, my friend. Please don't worry about catching up on my videos, it's all cool, mate!

[@MarkBryanRC]

@@Del350K4 Haha!!! Love that response!!! :P

[@Del350K4]

@@MarkBryanRC I've gone from three cameras to one, as one of my two identical Fujimax shockproof/waterproof cameras has stopped working, and my GoPro was on the ill-fated Grey Ghost speedboat which was lost at sea last summer. I replaced the GoPro with a generic action cam but I don't like the image quality and only use it for brief cab interior shots. I will eventually have to buy some new equipment, I suppose. I just like my old, familiar cameras - I get fond of them...

[@mobilkahfichannel]

wow amazing

[@Del350K4]

Thank you!

[@vashantivelgi]

Great video. Fully watched, like 17

[@Del350K4]

Thank you very much! I like building RC models of unusual cars.

[@jspeedrc]

Cool 👍🏽

[@Del350K4]

Why, thank you! The M-06 is a fun platform for various different bodies.
