    Another iconic Porsche for the aficionados: the legendary 911 turbo, this time a cheap diecast made by Welly in various colors: Here is mine from the Porsche Museum Collection - well executed, with good proportions. With a little Snake-Fu you can certainly dress this one up - I only added period-correct Austrian licence plates, everything else remained yet untouched.

    David, as far as I know, at least 5 different models have been made (some in 2 or more different colors): the iconic Toyota 2000 GT (ca. 1967), the Nissan (240) Fairlady ZL (ca. 1971), the 1990 Honda NSX, the 1994 Nissan Skyline R34 and the - only non-Japanese car - Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2,7.

    Here is a highly detailed Ebbro die-cast.

    Thank you all for the nice comments on this hastily built old kit !

    x 2: perfect harmony between cab and rear wheels, frame and body striping. The trailer looks also much better with 2 than 3 axles (will convert mine someday also from 3 to 2).

    Exceptionally well done model of the best-looking Lancer Evo of Tommy Mäkinen's 4 world championship rides.

    I guess MPW is for Mulliner Park Ward ?

    IIRC, I paid around € 40 for it (without original box or certificate - I don't care about the paperwork - but with a bent antenna, a small paint chip and some damage on the trunk mat/above the spre wheel) Helmut

    Thanks, Tim and Gary - the dark red/brown and gold color suits it well, too. Zinc pest is awful - I experienced that with some (forutunately cheap) die-casts that literally fell apart.

    Very nice collection of T1 and T2a (Welly?) vans and buses, Gary.

    Excellent model - too nice to be used in races.

    That is indeed a survivor, Gary, with a certain amount of patina - old VWs offered technical simplicity combined with reliability.

    If I ever would win the lottery, this one would be my choice (Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV): pictures from original Alfa Romeo advertising/press phtos: or this one (1969/70 Alfa Romeo GT 1300 junior):

    Good looking Mopar, Tony - it has that classic 70's street machine look.

    The same here - Yuri this is a fantastic model that looks as real as it gets!

    Thanks, Keyser - I've just corrected the title (name was taken over from the Car Model homepage)

    Now something unusual (at least for me) but when the opportunity was there, I had to take it (for little money, because of some small issues) - I think it is one of the best detailed Franklin mint models: very big and heavy, highly detailed, but take a look at the photos! Weakest point is the gap around the doors - but hey! 4 opening doors!

    Another "quickbuilder" from my modeling past: long gone amt/ERTL kit, but I still have some pictures (from 2008): built in the mid 80's, sprayed with car laquer and clear coated (both from the can), tried painting the window surroundings with semi-gloss black and added a few custom parts - otherwise stock-out-of-the-box:

    Slobodan, this is an exceptional build with fantastic details and excellent engine bay - it doesn't get any better. The 635 is certainly one of the most attractive BMWs ever with its aggressive, but at the same time elegant lines.

    Super, Harald - bist du deppert, a Wahnsinn ! Fascinating diorama with so many details to discover inside and outside the buildings - and the lighting!!! It would even work without the cars - but these are the icing on the cake !
  21. 1959scudetto
    Beautiful model with excellent paint, Andy - very nice!
  22. 1959scudetto
    Excellent kit-bashing, Stuart - looks so real (could be a farm or junkyard truck)
  23. 1959scudetto
    x 2 - very well done !
  24. 1959scudetto
    Very nice models, when stock cars really looked like stock cars.
  25. 1959scudetto
    Awesome model, Tomasz - looks better than the original!
