you probably wont get parts that old from toyota unless its for a supra, but camry are popular at breakers yards. at nearly 40 years old you'll probably struggle to even find pattern parts new

if you haven't seen the universal hobbies fordsons i suggest having a look. really nice diecast tractors

use forgot password first, then once its fixed you can change the email address

the GTi had black trim in the arches so you could maybe fix the arches that way. the lower trim levels had larger arch covers for some versions that cover the entire arch

just yse normal body polish. the chrome polish will take off more of the shine as its usually a mild abrasive polish

they obviously got sick of tickets for not indicating

theres also this one which is scaled better but only a single blower. I added the belts and dynamo and the carbs aren't on it yet but it turns out much nicer. the one you posted is over wide and rescaling it throws everything off unforunatally. for flatheads 3d has loads of options

revell mk1 golf is one of the best detailed kits out there. revell mk2 feels off somewhere in the body but mechanicals are decent for the time. revell corrados the golf mk2 mechanics but it looks more right in the body. fujimi, tamiya fwd vw kits are all curbside but there are parts available to fix that. amt have their own old 1/25 mk1 golf version but are currently selling the equally old esci 1/24 kit instead. amt do a 1/25 scirocco too and there a 1/24 motorised kit too. the jettas are available as trans kits or 3d prints and almost all of them are in 3d now

oopsies, i missed a reply

Thats a shame, they have some cool old rally stuff. i was too late for the transit bits i wanted

it happens automatically

try finks garage, they had some vw stuff

look maw, no glue

I've swapped to one of the rally car bodies as c1 have released an rs2000 and parts to convert the italeri kits. Since i want to use an rs front on the zackspeed body i swapped to this one. I've opened the boot and removed the cowl area but i still need to open the grille area up. theres another mod but i'll show it later as only one side is done (its not the wide arches). I've also swapped the carbs for the stock zakspeed engine part but have removed the joke of an airbox in place of a scratch built one. this will connect to the box under the radiator. I added some fittings to connect to the fuel block on top of the engine as well. it looks very simple but thats what zakspeed did. since i modified the front belts to add an alternator, the exhaust no longer fitted and wasn't going to work with the engine set back anyway so i scratched up a new one with the missing water intake also added. next since i opened the boot, i had to build up the inside as it was just a wall of plastic originaly. I cut most of this away, at times using a hole in the wheelarch, and then built up a floor and arches. its not even close to stock but its better than what was there, and once i add the rest of the fuel system most will be hidden anyway. speaking off, i also made a fuel tank. which will mean cutting out most of the remaining boot floor so it can be sunk in. this will hopefully leave space for some spare parts

yes

i'd chop up some small evergreen rod and drill holes to stick them in. if your fussy you can always drill the centres when they are glued to the body

you should double check your passwords too.

it will affect you. when the change happens everybody will be logged out and have to log in with the new proceedure

it what the shops want. the smaller size means they can get 3 rows where they used to get 2 so can display more of them. you still get the larger size sometimes when there are free standing displays or a special edition.

very cool and custom, and very very close to an idea i haven't got around to yet. honestly the only difference is i was going to use a pagani engine and box!

your drip rails and straight edges will work better if you print the body at an angle. the printers struggle with edges parrallel to the print plate and a bit of angle avoids it. it will take longer to print but flat edges will turn out better

is it wheels for the 599?

It is being looked at but its not affecting everyone, and some are only affected intermitently. If it was affecting everyone it would be easier to find the cause but as it is now its like trying to find a grain of salt in a bag of sugar. If you could note when it happens in this thread it all helps Dave investigate it. the info that helps is time, time zone, the thread you were posting in, operating system and web browser.

i got tickets for ac/dc in august
