Tamiya Wild Dagger WR-01 Transformation (Final Episode 7!) Body, wheels, tires ... & the First Run!

Time for the final result and ultimate transformation of the Tamiya Wild Dagger WR-01 (Tamiya WT-01 4WD) Monster Truck RC Car from 1999 (Tamiya 58231)! Tires, wheels, body, adjustments and a little test run!
Though this series ends here, I am definitely sure the project isn't over ... The first test run wasn't that impressive ... very unstable, very slow ... or maybe just a matter of bad grip on the grass ... So more tests (tarmac/dirt/GPS speed run) and adjustments will definitely appear! (I will show you a short clip with no music/editing from this first test run this Tuesday ... and would love to hear your opinion)
Thank you for watching!

So, the re-build/re-vitalization series ends here. I promised you a transformation, and here it is. A stock 1999 Tamiya Wild Dagger (Tamiya 58231) first of the WR-01's, ends up here as an upgraded 2007 Tamiya Dual Hunter (Tamiya 58396), last of the WR-01's. Ready for new adventures. I am sure the Wild Dagger will be re-born again though ... some day ...
