Bit of Tamiya X-8/11/18 paint for the indicators, door handles and rear number paint maybe Glenn? Brilliant though…. love the CW-01 in all it’s guises….. When I’m doing stuff now, I’ve even started to say “might do”, “maaaybe” …. and “we’ll have to see” all the time :)…. Burgers, Dogs, Soft Drinks and Munchies and then WHEELIES all day, every day…. ROCK & ROLL!
great great video, again. My youngest son wants a Lunch Box for his birthday, so yep, that's what he gets! After building a Blackfoot and Monster Beetle, I can't wait! keep up the good work Glenn!
I haven't seen this build before (even though I now own this very truck :) The detail about Vanessa's phone number was just awesome! I had to check the truck and see. And what a truck it is! I absolutely love it! Thanks so much again :)
I always thought it would be cool to paint this one in its original pre-production paint scheme (which never took off). I have an MRC catalog from 1987. In that catalog, Tamiya painted above the "lighting bolt" decal TS-16 yellow, and below the decal TS-41 coral blue. Have you ever seen this? I've never seen anyone attempt this!
Like you, I take my time painting these lovely bodies. First run and they get all scratched up lol. I'd rather drive a car with a scratched up body than not drive a pristine shelf queen. ;) Great job Glenn.
I finally got my lunchbox! I have the chassis all built up with bearings and a torque tuned motor. Just got the paint in the mail today. I’m hoping there’s nothing special to do before I paint it. Hoping that there are some tips and tricks in this video.
Hehe - I think all us Tamiya fans are nerds! Love the attention to detail. Gorgeous paint job mate - stunning job - is Glenn your name BTW? Thumbs up! :))
It's hard to see a real difference on video, are you still firm on the TS-47 as the 'original colour' as opposed to the TS-16? It took me only thirty years to pull the trigger on it but mine is coming this weekend. I also ordered all the recommended paints from the manual, including the TS-16. I don't want to get it wrong.. Cheers man and greetings from the Netherlands.
@@TAMIYALegends Hey giving you a heads up. If your interested in getting a brand new Technigold motor. They just posted one on Ebay.

Hey Mr. Tamiya nerd FYI the bottom decal on the original was Signal Hill, the only Two differences was the phone number and the racing sponsors. Just helping ya stay correct.
Basildon Trail Blazing Buddies Hi buddy, It only differs from the LunchBox in the Tamiya Guidebooks, there are a few cars and trucks in the books that actually have slight differences. I was just being extra nerdy 🤓 with this one 😂😂😂👊🏻
