I will be adding items to my store all the time and all proceeds go right back into the channel!
In part 2 I work out the easiest way to hang my tamiya semi truck axles under the mini winni. And the interior just kind of works out perfectly. However I broke my trans (insert face-palm here) But stay tuned part 3 will be out friday when we get to test drive this bad boy!

The raised front floor is actually more like the real thing and it worked out better than I thought it would looks good
Dude the winabago build is super cool. It worked out great as far as having room for electronics an battery without having to put it in the interior. That build has a ton of potential man!
Hey Everyday! That camper is great and sits perfect it look like there's lights on inside with that yellow glass in the windows! We use to have a Brave model Winny back in the day for motocross to drag the trailer with the bikes inside! Maybe a ladder on the back and air conditioner on top, good Sam club sticker on back and a spare tire! Great builds!😉
Simple but pretty genius suspension setup nice job
I went to the winnebago plant in 1972 and got one of those given to me. When I was a teenager we sat on it and rode it down a hill folded it in half. Been looking for one for about 2 years want to make a rc out of one. Who would have thought that it would be a collector's toy. Every kid in my town had one. So kool.
Awesome project guy ! I'm also a Tonka Toy Collector ( and customizer ) and I have the same Winnie sitting on the shelf waiting for me to get into it , like your posts a lot . I'm going to try and use a 3 speed trans from a Scania Semi that I have on hand as well as the axles . Best to you , Jim
If the back side of the driver and passenger seats are visible on the finished model, you might add some upholstery. Very cool so far.
Awesome ! My vote is keep the chrome rims,contrast is bang on. The stance and leaf springs are perfect. Cheers !
Patina is spot on, needs that chrome. I say run those wheels. The contrast is perfect.
Needs a light kit now...lol
Great work dude!
I can't believe I came across this video. I have one of these campers and I've been looking at it for like 2 years thinking wouldn't it be funny to power it. My idea was to pull a trailer behind it with one of my crawlers. It's very big. Bigger than it seems on camera
Can't wait to see it move hauling his trailer around
I absolutely love this build! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the videos!
Awesome work, great patina is right! Very original way to repurpose an old favorite.
Love it and Happy Birthday.
Yes to the white rims. Will need rust...
Interior needs some beers, pizza, guitar, etc.
Badass creation.. ride height looks killer
Nice work Josh! The wheels and tires look perfect! I'd like to see the windows replaced with clear lexan and actual lights installed. As for a trailer hitch I've found the Xtraspeed hitch for Scx10 for around $10.00 , I also have one from China that bolts on the face of the rear bumper and looks super scale and it's cheap (around $5.00 or so shipped)!
This is badass in so many ways. I love your musical choices. It’s so awesome how it looks real af!! Not a jacked up Crawler. And I love Crawlers
Wow! I think is gonna come out looking great! I love what you did to the scale garage! Looks awesome!😎👍
Awesome! Keep the chrome. They set it off!
Nice job! I like it! Cant wait to see it out drivin n how it handles. Very cool build. Happy birthday!!!!
That I awesome. I can't wait to see it up and rolling. I going to have to keep my eyes open for old Tonka toys.
its looking awesome bro for sure
This thing is so sick in so many ways!!! Oh, keep the chrome wheels! With the rake, they look totally badass!!!
Man u are awesome, do more of the conversations from foy to rc
Fantastic Build!! Great job, again!
Looks great! I still remember when I was about 4 or 5 years old I used to ride mine down hills!
Good work! Love doing this stuff!
It's just my kind of rc build with a proper real sheet metal body rc conversion...the fiber sunboard plastic bodies i dnt like ...it's real old Tonka bus real roted rust ..nostalgiac....great job ...do make some more rc on old tin tonka toys...👍🏽👍🏽
Love this!!!! White all the way on the wheels. I was just thinking that right when you said it
Was wanting to see this vid. Love how you kept the suspension simple. Its given me some ideas how to get mine up and running. Great vid 👍
You have inspired me to take on my first custom body! Keep up the great work man
Great work you have made some really nice stuff love watching your videos
I have one of them also from my childhood along with other tonka truck's I didn't'see opening door on the side. A grader or loader would be nice to.Very cool love it keep it up
You're always doing something cool
I like it, takes me back to when I was a kid, now to be an rc vehicles, great job .looks great👍👍👍
Its looking so awesome bro, its a bummer on the faulty (crappy) transmission
Happy Bday!
Looks great! A loose, bouncy suspension would be so cool.
Oh my God...! It's on another level.! I am definitely on the LED band wagon.!
Looking killer!!! I love the way it’s coming together bro!!
Man that's sick I had one of those wanabangos when I was growing up but it was the smaller one
lesu makes a good reduction gearbox. Just a note you'd need to press the pinion onto the motor if you get one, unless they changed it
That is one amazing build!!! Well done man!!!
Hey man happy late birthday man....and this thing is pretty sweet can't wait to see it run
indeed
Awesome!!! I'm usually not that impressed by much, but this is very impressive. Great work sir.
They make really awsome really thin wood veniers you could cover the side panels of the interior with! It would look like the old paneling they had in them!
Great build this thing looks amazing
Needs a light kit for head lights and taillights maybe a scale family in there chilling i love the build man amazing job
Oh Sensei! Teach me your ways!😄 Looks awesome!
Friggin awesome!! Mad scientist kinda stuff!! Probably gonna agree with some of the other comments, and say yes on the white rims. Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUDDY!!
What a perfect project for the new shop😁😁😁
dude it looks wicked cool two thumbs up
Best thing to R/C. Interior wood grain sticker would be cool.
Love it, I like tha way this build is going. Thumbs up dub. 👍
You have to loosen some of the bolts/screws on the motor mount of that reduction box. I had the same issue on my custom build a couple years ago. I know it seems counterintuitive to leave anything loose on a gear box, but I've got a lot of hours mine running like that.
I actually had one of the forward planetary gears misaligned. Locked the whole thing up.
That body is fucking BADASS! looking forward to seeing her roll
Amazing video..your custom work is incredible bro! 🖖🐶😸
Happy birthday nice build
happy birthday , leave the chrome wheels , and display them clean and shiny . if you could find scale mexican blankets that would be really kool for the interior . nice job
I think I actually have a scale Mexican blanket. Lol
Looks sweet, Need to add some lights including the orange ones across the top and some scale little old rv stickers for the back. (good sam, KAO, etc)
Love the setup fam
Happy Birthday!
Awesome job brother
This reminds me of the Turbo LSX Winnebago.... look it up if you hadnt seen it !!!!! One of kind build by the way and super cool
The WBGO looks awesome,tires and wheels look good just need a bit of age on them👍👍
"And here, under the hood, we stored something that would really come in handy...if it doesnt fall off and break my leg..." LOL I can almost hear that winnebago man from those commercial bloopers cussing in the background. If you had used snippets of it throughout these videos I would laugh so hard I would fall of my chair XD
I love this build!!!!
It looks great!!
Dude happy birthday hey by the way my wife wants to see Weeble wobbles driving the Winnebago that's some LOL right there have a great evening
Haha! But they dont fall down.
I’m liken the chrome wheels. It’s like a hint that there’s something hidden in the motor bay that will eat you. Lol
Sick restomod!
Cool project 👍👍
It looks great.
☢️Love the builds you are extremely underrated. Keep magic going.👍
Yeah I can't wait to see that one up and running around pulling Rat Rods to the show oh yeah
Looks sweet !!
That is awesome! My brother set my Tonka winny on fire and pushed it down the sidewalk back in the day. Jerk.
i mess with 1/24 scale models but your videos make me want to try rc 🤔
Heck yeah! I grew up on 1/24 and always struggled getting the detail i wanted at that size. But the bigger RC stuff allows me to get in depth like I always wanted.
Tonka is good🤘
Needs a light kit and some fuzzy dice to hang down were the non existent rear view mirror would be. I'm really surprised how well the interior dropped in with just a little trimming.
love your channel
looks great
Idk if you did yet but you should add a light kit and maybe a sound kit also
i love this project
Shoegoo on the air bags..to remove the shoegoo broiling hot water
Looks sick i love it
I did one with the tonka dump truck but i took it apart.
It was too heavy for the esc and motor at long runs
Olive RC style 👍
TUNAGE IS SO CAB!* 👏
*Cabaret Voltaire
Super cool👍👍
Love this thing...
BEAUTIFUL
wish i could get my hands on one of those winnerbagos.....
White wheels are the way to go! But match the white of the camper, not to bright of a white.
Its beautiful
looks boss👍 I would go with the White wheels. But then again I think the White wheels will be brighter than the actual body Might make it look a little off 🤔Although it's hard to tell how there going to look.. Since I can see the Chrome ones I like those as well
Hello is the trans your using a 3 to 1 reducer . If so i bought 2 of them. I haven't used them yet. I bought mine for a rock crawlers.
I found a Tonka Winnebago just like yours . It was on a RUclips channel they had it setting in the back ground i ask if they wanted to sell it. I wanted to do same thing you are doing. That is so Awesome how your doing yours.
Working lights
I have one were can I get those axle thank you and by the way nice job looks awesome
You should make a air ride system would be bad ass
Check out my Ramp Truck build series...
RC Everyday I have its amazing you would be sick on the rv
Man u do good work.. This one is turning out sick.. Yea u should air ride it.. Lol
