    That Audi body is insanely rare. They will never re re it.
    Can't wait you to paint the Audi shell. Will remind me of Christmas 1983, when I got mine :)

    I would bet that the Bullhead build (start to finish) would be quite time consuming as compared to other Tamiya kits. Certainly sounds like a great build and a great addition to the collection!

    My first Tamiya bought from new was that Bullhead. I really wanted a Clod but the store had no in stock. However he did have all the Clod body parts available. So he removed the Bullhead body parts and replaced it with Clod parts.
    I painted the body to match the yellow bumpers. I think I had a unique Clod for sure.
    Was over the moon when I got it and I really enjoyed building it.
    Sadly I traded it for two Kyosho nitro cars, Pug 405 and the Escort Cosworth. But those engines never ran rigth. I learned years later if I fitted exhast pressure fittings the problem would have been solved as the pressure hose was just fitted into a hole in the muffler, which made the pressure hose shrink due the heat which in turn made less pressure as you drove.
    I regretting that trading big time since late 90s (Got the Bullhead approx 92') so much that this spring I bought the Clod from Tamiyabase site where it is featured in the Clod chassis page.
    Tamiyabase is driven by a friend of mine here in Norway.

    Yes, the Bullhead was modeled after the real 1980's - '90s monster truck , The "Super Pete". MCI makes a super pete decal set. It was a gorgeous truck. Keith you should try to pickup a Kyosho Heavy Metal if you can find one, super rare and little info online about them, it too was modeled after a real tracked monster truck from the late 80's early 90's

    There's some good posts on Tamiyaclub about the differences between 201 and DN-01. Main ones are 201 has reinforced plastics on chassis, shock towers, arms etc. Aeration dampers and titanium turnbuckles. Seems to be the main reason the Zahhak didn't sell that well is that it wasn't cheap enough compared to 201.

    Wow those rims look like they’ve got some quality to em. I think the Zahhak is refreshing, so many people updated and hopped em up to 201 standards when the car is quality already. On the Zahhak I would only change the ball diff to 201. Great video Keith love the Buyeeeeeeee Bargain video’s.

      Shipping from Buyee to the US via EMS is no different then any other country. If I ship a kit from Australia, Japan, Taiwan, or any other country that side of the world it always runs about $100 per kit. I am willing to pay that to have it in 5 days or less. That is normal kit box like an Egress. Not sure if yours is more. Maybe it has something to do with taxes or import fees.
