Hi What type of paint/color do you people use for the frame on woodies? The frame on the body you insert the woodgrain decals to be specific. I would have to order it so if anyone can be specific about make,number etc i would appriciate it. Red arrows on the picture to illustrate what i`m searching lol

Rusty Ferrari Barn Find
om617 replied to 1930fordpickup's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Alfredino Ferrari,the only son of Enzo Ferrari,suggested his father to develop a V6 racing engine for Formula 2 in the early 60s. Although always in favour of V12,Enzo approved his beloved son's project and employed famed engineer Vittorio Jano to design this engine. The result was a very compact,1600cc,quad-cam V6 which eventually won several F2 championship titles. However,before this happened,the ill fated young Alfredino had already died in kidney disease. It took Enzo Ferrari several years to fully recover from heartbreak. For the memory of his son,he put the V6 into a mid engined sports car and badged it "Dino",which is the short write of his son's name. -
Nice Deep Purple cover by Norwegian singer Jørn Lande. German band At Vance takes on one classic Abba song.

Indeed it is. And as goes for bang for bucks you cant do any better. I dont intend to step on any toes and i do like some Nissan models,but the GTR is incredible ugly,i just cant get myself to like no matter how fast it is lol

Does anyone cast this '72 GTO spoiler?
om617 replied to Modlguy's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Thanks Joseph,well then no spoiler it is then. -
Thank you James and Jason. Jeremy: The engine is not original so the oilpan,exhaust and motor mounts where the only thing needing attetion. As for self criticism i should used more orange on the indicators,also paid more attention to mount them. The plates look dirty on the pics,also maby not my fault,but the rear skirt should gone deeper for a more clean look. If you look at the sideskirts it`s not high on the rear as the rear skirt makes it look. Anyway,onto next victim

Thank you Ken. Engine by request. Hypothetically what it would sound like

Thank you I`ll try fix some more pictures. The tires will hit the fenders if i drop it more Thanks all for the comments.

Sure look amazing in 1:12. I see some listed at 236$ on Ebay right now. Do you guys have any experience with Elite hotwheels? The 250 California Spider looks pretty nice. Edit: Oh and the 410 Superamerica

Thought i should try give this old Tamiya Benz new life. Not sure what style it is but there is some 80s tuner Lorinser bodykit,VIP wheels,i think they are Work,but the package does not say. The tires are 295-35-18 at the rear and 235-40-18 at the front. The paint have lots of pink pearl on it but i did not manage to capture it. The engine is a 6liter 48valve 408hp from w140 S-class AMG,also Tamiya. I painted it like the engine in the Brabus 7,3. This one have 582hp & 772nm. The interior is called bull blood red,but i`m sure it`s got a better name,i forgot to take a picture before assembly. The plenum and covers on each side of the engine is treated with Kosutte-Ginsan (This stuff is amazing). I mounted some fat exhaustips,put on some VIP stickers on front fenders and rear hatch,polished the body with meguiars and put on some strips of BMF. Anyway i hope you like it and here are some pictures. Comments and critice are welcome.
