  1. I'm going to be starting with some parts and the body from my previous escort entry. my previous entry was about halfway along but i'll be changing to a rally car chassis as the current one is set up for a cossie and i can use it under something else. some of the parts getting swapped over to the rally car.
  2. theres a few options but most are aimed at pro touring and drag racing. i haven't seen any seperate conversion parts but you might find a printer that would do them seperate for you. have a look on cults3d and you'll find lots of options.

  4. you'll possibly need a bus kit too. both my campers have the rear hatch stretched along the top edge but i had one left from the bus i cut up back when the kit was new. i should probably finish that truck sometime, lol
  5. level playing fields really spoiled the skateboard competition
  6. use otta no bi nou at nuttin offa ta ai ys zpelt rite zos use batr git wint wae hid
  7. wind up your electrical cords after use unless your kid needs a puzzle
  8. the pre painted versions can be found cheaper usually
  9. i know that bus and i used to live about 10 mins walk along the road behind it, near that church. they have 2 more flat front versions
  10. most euro cars came with those headlight wipers, and an ugly box for the washer jets. They never worked for long either, one winter would destroy them. One of my first jobs in the garage was making plugs for the holes when we removed them. they didn't last long but it was the nearest the garage got to doing custom work sadly.
  11. i trully hope this isn't the one some yobbos smashed up a few months back.
  12. you could just add the text on photoshop or similar.
  13. you could try the notify me section on spot model. if it comes back in stock you'll get an email from them, usually before they arrive so you get to the front of the queue
  14. looking at the front spoiler in the first pic, it looks like it started out as a visor for a 40s car or truck with split screen
  15. nice artwork, now you gotta build em in plastic !
  16. its not, its a ford anglia/thames van (harry potter car) with what looks like a camry grille and windows cut in the sides. the wide arches on the rear are custom and give it a slight commer cob look. its a rare vehicle as most of these were worked hard and rotted away. here a stocker
  17. the monogram s'cool bus might give you most of a body but you might need a second body to unchop or unsection it. there are a few print files available if you have access to a 3d printer. the print files cover various years from the 50 chevy and ford trucks through to current international versions. the chassis are usually kinda toyish on the prints
  18. night follows day unless you were a dinosaur
  19. and it looks fun if you dumb stuff with it
  20. i think i built 8, another 8 unfinished and possibly purchased the same, but i printed a lot of stuff which is money i would have spent on kits. I have bought a lot more supplies like paint and glues than i normally do
