  1. Oops, I wrong url. The correct link: https://www.highlightmodelstudio.com/en
  2. That sun visor is a multipiece PE- detail set found from this site: ( The link below is now corrected ) https://www.highlightmodelstudio.com/en
  3. Thank you for your nice comments! Meanwhile I have done some scratcbuilding to shut wheelwells for more streamlined look. Pics will follow when all body modifications are ready.
  4. First paint coats on. Otherwise this model is still in mock - up stage.
  5. Mock up pics of more recent modifications. Replacing rear wheels are fully adjustable rear thrusters with antigravitation coils.🤪
  6. More body modifications and new way to assemble main engines.
  7. I'm back with this build! Shortened those previously schratchbuild engines so now they are not too big for this car. Also deleted the convertible bodystyle by adding a top unit from 36 Ford.
  8. This is Evo X Ralliart from Aoshima with PE- parts and some other modifications. -Tinted windows made from smoke PVC- sheet from Raboesch. -Aftermarket seatbelts -Aoshima Skyline wheels -Tamiya 306 Peugeot tyres -Fujimi tyre decals -Tamiya cherry red and gun metal paint -computer generated local plates Thanks for looking!
  9. Thank you all of your nice comments. This model was really fun to plan and build. One does not always have to make the most obvious choices for starting point for a gasser. Thinking a bit out of the box keeps things more interesting.
  10. Actually those wheels and tires in front are about the same size than original ones that came with the kit. At rear those wheels and tyres are bigger than original in widht and height. I also think that this gasser is built as light as possible.
  11. Oh, and of course it has local ( Finnish ) licence plates and 80- sticker which means it only is allowed to drive 80 km /h on street ( this one really is NOT street legal here in finland. ) To keep it more on a suicide- style I also removed front brakes. Tyres are from modelhaus with chrome wheels from Revell 60 Chevy Street Fighter 2.
  12. HI. This is my latest version of 1967 VW Kastenwagen ( = Van ). Built as a sixties- style gasser it has a modified Corvair engine from AMT parts pak. Paint is from Tamiya, decals are from various Revell kits. I modified interior with revell seats and console. Axles are VW original but raised with schratchbuilt and revell parts. Comments are always welcomed!
