that might work if you add afew bars to the revell beretta kit, its a bit narrower

The glidden chassis most likelly wont fit, its 1/24 and probably too wide for the nova body. I used one under a bmw e36 and it was a tight fit in it. would the amt pro street nova chassis fit?

I bought our local water bords old 4x4 mk2. it was blue with a colgne v6. It was a fun beach runner and surprisingly capable over rocks, but still my bay window was better

Could it be because the tamiya tyres that were in this kit are really soft in the first release and it helped it sit level once built? I had the kit during the 90s and after a wheel swap with the alfa dtm car it never sat quite right so it might have been down to the taper

There was a thread on the forum a couple of years ago. It may have been in aftermarket or tips section. I think the thread was called working tops or similar and someone mentioned where to find resin up tops in the thread. sorry i'm not more help

I'm only seeing the mk2 ones just now but they pop up on ebay quite regular https://motobitz.uk/kits--trans-kits1.html

would it be any cheaper for you to order from australia? I'm in scotland and i find its often cheaper to order from bna modelworld on the web or a-modeller on ebay, than ordering from near to home and doesn't take much longer to be delivered

Has anyone heard from Geoff? Its been a year since he was on and I've not seen him around the other forums either

You can absolutelly do that. Personally I have no interest in factory stock yet some of my fav builders on the forum only build that way. You can easily judge something only by the workmanship and it happens often in the 1/1 world too. Some of the vehicles that have won ambr or detroit have fantastic attention to detail but the end result isn't to my tastes. Quality workmanship will always stand out even if its not necessarily aesthetically pleasing to your eye

theres a mk1 transit conversion available, and a long wheelbase. I think its motobitz that do them

I think it looks pretty good as it is. Once the chrome goes on it will bring it to life, but maybe a company logo or something on the doors might work too

You can wet sand metallics and pearls. I've done it with hok on a deep chip (dropped my sprue cutters on the roof) and it turned out fine. The secret is not to change direction and not to press too hard on it. You can see how it was done here http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/159305-57-bug-with-working-suspension-teardrop-trailer/

you should be able to play it at double speed somewhere in the options menu

c'mon man, I'm sure you've seen people being personally attacked on the forum over toy cars. Do you really think 2 divisive topics like politics and religion would end well. This place is a respite from from seeing that stuff on the news all the time. We dont need a jan 6th on the forum

I dont know why you guys are complaining, gas is over ten bucks a gallon where i am, and from next week I'll be paying more for electric than for rent.

If you have daughters or grandaughters with barbies, the old style phones come with small coiled wire thats close to scale. You might also find something in the hair styling or dolls house sections in shops

It says online he's sitting this year out after spending most of last year filming away from his family. He says he'll be back for the okc series

How old is the pen? has it been stored in a cool place? Has the paint you are using it over fully gassed out? Has it been stored with the tip pointing up? The pens seem to go bad if they are somewhere with large temprature flucuations. I have a set of the first pens that are still good but i dont keep them anywhere near heat and store them with the point up when not being used. You can pump out a little of the pens and brush it on without any problems but you have to be quick or it will dry. You may find that it just needs a longer shake if its been sitting a while. If the paint you are using it over hasn't fully gassed out it can gunk up the tips and cause them to stop working.

Very cool, the rb looks like it should have always been there

I only have notifications set for 1 email a week. That part is working but its on the site itself i dont get the green number on the bell. It seems to be working now, but yesterday I was quoted/reacted a number of times but only got the one notification. Its not a big deal, I can live without using my profile. It just makes it quicker for me to reply if one is needed

I get the first notification each day, its the ones following that I dont get

I like your vision. It looks much nicer than stock to me. I like your rear end treatment and how it looks sorta spaceshipesque. Playing on that a one piece tail light with a similar treatment to the grille might look cool. I would also bring the top edge of the rear bumper up slightly to bring it inline with the trim above it which could be acheived by a slight reshape to the trim along the bottom of the trunk. At the moment it looks to have a slight droop but this could be a trick of the light. This would also give you a nice body line to use if decide on fender skirts. Looking forwrd to following this

Is anyone else not getting notifications? Since yesterday when someone quotes my posts the notification no longer arrives or shows in the bell icon at the top of the page next our names. They were working earlier in the day

my offers still open mate.

I like to have a detailed engine and interior mainly. I dont worry too much about suspension unless you can see it without lifting the models, and usually most of my chassis are just satin black cos I dont see much point spending a lot of time on something only i will ever see. I dont mind curbsides, especially now with 3d printing as there are many options for engine and interiors that even 3 years ago seemed like a pipe dream. But more important than any of these options is the subject matter and how well done the body is. Theres no point in a nicely detailed interior or engine if the body looks wrong.
