Tamiya Clod Buster upgrades
During lockdown, I got back into making RC models, but after buying a Prusa i3 Mk3 S 3D printer, I became obsessed with modding them.
This video shows all the modifications I made to my Tamiya Clodbuster. If you'd like to make any of these parts for yourself (non commercial only), you can download the files for free here: www.printables.com/model/82293-complete-upgrade-set-for-tamiya-super-clod-buster
If you want to see more like this, please leave a comment below and I'll start documenting other projects.

Nice weathering. And a nice touch with the dog model and her ashes. After my almost 15 year old Yellow Lab died, I made a Tamiya Mazda 3 model (same as our car), cut out one of the back windows, and made a platform for a Yellow Lab model to sit in the back seat with his head out the window.
@@tallpaul1269 sounds great! Sorry to hear that. 15 great years though. Cheers, John
Ok…I’ve been banging around trying to figure out a summer RC project. This video clinched it for me…I’ve always wanted a Clod…and I have a 3D printer…such a great job!!!
Fantastic! Have fun.
Man that looks awesome, love the interior with the dash lights.
Cheers! John
This is Beautiful!! Best I've seen!!:)
Thanks so much! Cheers, John
been using some of your files with my own clod and having a blast though i'm still struggling with painting but thats more a issue in general is I suck at painting ANYTHING! But I've made myself a driver from a bunch of scrapped together gunpla pieces an put a fpv camera in the head and I can wait to get more of this sorted to drive it in first person an see the dash an wheel move along with the rest of the truck
That sounds brilliant! I've got a camera fixed in another car, but putting it in the driver's head is genius. Cheers, John
What a fantastic build. It looks amazing!
Thanks so much!
Wow, just amazing!
Thanks very much!
Wow!!! This is art - i love it!
Thank you so much! All the best, John
love it, but, not to be a stickler but you did all that work but still have the body posts sticking through the body.... like I said beautiful build regardless, no body posts would have completed it.
I did think about filling them and using magnets, but it's a really heavy body, and I wanted it to stay on in use. All the models I've built since also retain the body posts as I like to drive them. This has had a bit of damage through crashing, but it works with the look of it, fortunately
VERY cool, really reminds me of Hammerhead from Twisted Metal!
Excellent, thanks!
Wow... that is absolutely one of the best custom looking Clods I've ever seen. Super cool looking. Thanks for sharing all the custom parts you created. Still can't get over how EPIC yours looks..
Thanks so much! Cheers, John
❤ The touches are awesome! 💯%👍
Thanks so much!
I am curious, will the sound module work with a non lipo power source like ni-cad?
I think so, but check the voltage requirements of whichever you buy. I doubt much has NiCd now, does it? NiMH at most, surely? Unless it's proper old-school
Just mine. lol I’m old. Built my trucks and boats in the 90’s
❤. Very nice 👍 job!
Thanks!
Amazing build, I’ve loved the Clod Buster since I was a kid in the 80’s, and this is definitely the coolest version I’ve ever seen. Nice work!
Thanks so much! Cheers, John
Great job ! Looks amazing.
Thanks very much!
Wow that thing looks amazing.. Great weathering job 👍
Thanks! Cheers, John
Bro, get a job with special effects, your a natural. Love your work BTW. I'm inspired!
Thanks very much!
Dude this rulz!!!! 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Lol i love it, never seen anything like it, inspiring. Just needs the stars and bars flappin in the back.
Is that Bruce Willis in the driver seat?
Yeah, from Pulp Fiction
Awesome work.
Thanks!
I'm bored with weathering on crawlers, cause everyone does it. But on a Clod? I've never seen it. This is brilliant. And kudos for weathering the wheels. They're often overlooked
Thanks very much! It's a lot easier to hide mistakes with weathering! Cheers, John
Nice job, you did great.
Thanks! Cheers, John
Driver looks like Mel Gibson
It's an action figure character of Butch from Pulp Fiction (Bruce Willis)
@@goodtobegeek lol I had my names wrong
The dash lights are epic OHH BRUCE WILLY!!!!!! such an awesome build, creative juices are percolating.
Thanks! All the best, John
Thank you so much for inspiration! I can't decide to buy this car for a project or not.
Thanks! It's a relatively expensive kit, but I reckon anything with a hard body makes a good project. I'm working on a Lunchbox at the mo. Cheers, John
So Cool and Looks like real !!! and gorgeous MT!!
Thanks very much! Cheers, John
Bruse willis 😮 behond the wheel
Wow superb craftsmanship right there!! Amazing 🤩
Thanks very much! Cheers, John
I am getting a Mad Max vibe from this truck
Really liking the Clod Buster Mad Max edition. Great build you have there.
Thank you! Cheers, John
That's amazing! You did a great job!
Thanks very much! Cheers, John
That is a masterpiece! 👏👏 Subbed.
Thank you! All the best, John
Hello this is awesome 👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much! Cheers, John
Amazing work on that Clodbuster, man!
Thanks!
I love it!!! Very well done and I really love the small details like the flickering tail light, the blower butterflies, the exhaust tips... all really cool! I would love to re-create something similar to this at some point so I really appreciate you linking the parts and providing them to us!
Thanks so much! All the best, John
How did you go about attaching the wire screen/mesh to the inside of the truck cab for the windows?
I just used two-part epoxy for that
really nice! that is awesomwe!
Thanks! John
that looks suspiciously similar to my real squarebody before I started restoring it. If you have an email, Ill send pics
Pop them into a video - would be cool to see
I had a Clod back in high school. About 25 years ago! Anyway besides the point - but your work is amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks very much! Cheers, John
Beautifull. Subscribed.
Thanks so much! Cheers, John
Maybe you'll add a smoke emitter on it ,that'll complete the scale look
I have been looking at videos about them...
Great job
Thanks!
You make me feel like a complete amateur. Beautiful car.
We all just mess around trying stuff. I just hide all my mistakes with rust!
Wow! That is an amazing build!!! I cannot wait to see if you post any more of your projects!
Thanks! As soon as get time I'll do videos for the King Hauler, Sand Scorcher and Lunchbox
Wait. You only have 1 video? We need more! haha
Best pull my finger out I guess! Cheers, John
What sound module did you use? Oh and that truck is freaking amazing. Awesome work.
Thanks! It was from BangGood... a GT Power one. banggood.onelink.me/zMT7/9x5hufyz
Awesome looking Clod, the flickering tail light made me laugh. I had a real square body many years ago tail light did that exact same thing! Now I want to learn some Fusion 360 and buy a printer.
Thanks! They're are some great channels on TH-cam - this one is particularly good: th-cam.com/users/Fusion360School As Fusion360 is free for non-commercial use (you just have to renew your licence every year), you can have a good play with it to pick things up.
This thing is awesome.subscribed
Thanks so much! Guess I'd better get on and make another video...
