  1. I'm a print only sorta guy. I used to have an e reader but a certain site decided not to maintain that feature and i lost almost 150 books I paid for. At least with print if it goes missing its my fault, and i can buy another copy.
  2. promoting social media
  3. Sweet
  4. If you look at the bottom left on this page thay have a conversion table for paint shades for a lot of companies http://www.creativemodels.co.uk/
  5. grafitti shops sell varieties of can nozzles with different fan patterns. anything from finelines to large area coverage so you may find something there
  6. Better to find out on your drive, than when a pedestrian steps out in front or some fool does a u turn. You were pretty lucky there really given the circumstances
  7. Stunning paint! If you want to save some time on cutting tape there are nail art stencils on amazon that could work for your paint jobs. They come in packs of 50 varied for about 3 or 4 quid a pack
  8. Per chance do you mean the skips drive in version of the nomad? The one I have seems to have a half v6, half v8 engine, the body looks like a nomad if you poke yourself in the eye and rub lemon in it. About the only parts in the nomad that are any use is the chassis, suspension and interior. The rest is scrap
  9. Sweet, a great mash up of parts
  10. The 1/1 version looks to have been shortened too, the gap between the rear arch and door is much shorter. Maybe it would work better if it was the stock length instead but it may be a chassis swap, those look a lot like vw/audi wheels
  11. I saw some pe stencils for good year lettering on one of the truck aftermarket sites. They might fit the slicks and have the benefit of just needing cleaned before being reused. It may have been ctm or auslowe that had them
  12. I haven't tried duplicolour over tamiya primer but i have used tamiya paint over duplicolour primer with duplicolour clear and I found it needed longer to gas out or it became sorta tacky when polishing. I also use duplicolour clear plastic primer as my first couple of coats before the normal primer and haven't had any crazing. also I only used spraycans
  13. Sweet, lote of cool touches on this but the gun metal bumpers are my fav feature
  14. Sweet, I've got one of these to build so are there any issues with fit?
  15. No complaints here, you give us this site for free so many thanks
  16. Thats cool, I've never seen one of these
  17. I kinda like the anglia,
  18. One of the large US ambulances just went past my house on flatbed. Not unusial for most of you but I live on the scottish islands
  19. I'd say give it 5 years and they'll be the halo electric cars to get people more interested, at least thats what I would do if I ran the companies
  20. nice! any plans for it? they can make a lot of power for a 4 pot
  21. Oops, thanks for the correction, I'm more into the custom shows than the resto shows so they tend to blend together for me
  22. Someone shared a link the other day for a store that looks to have a nice ifs. I havent seen one in the flesh but the pics look good its under accesories half way down on this page https://motobitz.uk/accessories.html
