The chrome sticky stuff they make fingernail masks with would be perfect for badges and pretty close to scale for thickness. Some of them have a surprising amount of detail so heving badges cut out of them shouldn't be too difficult for the manufacturers to do. The stuff is more pliable than the trim included with the tamiya mk2 jags and sticks pretty well

I would say the revell is better as some of the fit of the mpc was little loose though neither has a very nice engine, though both kits have the exhaust and rear axle moulded as one. If you want it in 1/25 you would need the mpc as the revell is 1/24. The size difference between them is very noticable, I f I mind correctly there a half inch difference in width and about an inch in length

Cool ideas among them, I might have to build some of them, probably the italivette first as I think I have everything needed for it already

Nice scores, I dont have any of the other kits but the box art on the monte does it no favours, the kit is much better than the art

Looking good GTFan, I'm really enjoying watching this come together and learning the pitfalls. When I get to mine I'll be using your build as a guide

Got this yesterday (pic from internet) I also got some sprue/pe cutters and metal colour paints from one of the warcraft/warhammer type shops (note to self- do not go in there when they have a game on)

I'd never have guessed it was a capri under that body, I found a near identical looking car that was frua bodies bmw. I wonder if that would have sold as well as the actual capri did?

Ah well , it was a newsreport about a woman that bought lotto tickets with a stolen credit card, then got arrested when she tried to claim the the 50k, and the person driving her got her car impounded for driving with a suspended licence. I think it was in canada

I hope this link works https://uk.news.yahoo.com/woman-steals-credit-cards-buys-092329425.html

I'd like to see some newer vw golfs, but they would have to be in 1/24. I would also like a 1/24 scirocco as the 1/25 amt engine bay needs a lot of work to be correct (I have one in progress) Some rs audis would also be cool

I tried a few days ago, I know what it isn't and I really thought I was right, lol

c'mon guys, this isn't facebook, you gotts remember where you are

who's gonta build one now? I'd love to see it with the weirdness

Just out of interest what scale is your magnum van? I have the un version and the camper version and one is 1/24 and the other 1/25 but comparing the bodies together there is no difference in width or length

I'm sure now you've said about the connection you and your brother have with this car, that the fine people on this site will be looking through their scrap boxes to help you. Unfortunatelly I have nothing you need but there's a lot of really good folk on here. They've helped me out and I am sure they will help you out too. I wish you all the best for this project

yeah the ukrainian lots items look really nice, but $45 (bmw) with p+p on top for an engine is a bit much when eightyone can have them delivered for $30 (not bmw) from hong kong. But for a decent audi a4 road car I would probably buy one set anyway for my vw family collection as I prefer the road cars to the race.

thanks, I'll keep a look out for them. I was thinking the ukrainian lot ucsp I think but their stuff is kinda expensive

thanks for that, I'll need a few of them. I also hope someone does a stock interior conversion for the audi and e46 so i can do some stance builds from them

Very cool, I really like the roof swap

I think most forums cater for them, scale and the material is unimportant really, but make sure to include it so people know its a smaller scale. There is a resin cast section lower down the menu page with resin/diecast but i think they are more modified pre built (I'm probably wrong on that)

Where did you see an audi a4? I see a chevy cruze, 2 bmws and a pug 206. The only mention I saw for the audi in the link, was in the comments. I'm not saying it wasn't there, only I didn't see it in the pics or original post and I want one if its true

Tonight on I saw it online so it must be true, upsize your car with gas station airlines

Bondic is the uv activated glue, if you do a search there is a thread here somewhere that explains it better than i can

A sale section would just end up being page after page of complaints about the prices, sure the high ebay price threads are kinda interesting/fun to read but generally they aren't about members. If there was a sales section it would be about members and only lead to memebers leaving or bad feeling. Lets just leave the selling for other places and keep the community on even keel. Theres enough division in the real world, we dont need it here in our plastic playground
