Hello John That helped a lot, thank you. Ash

Hello Everyone I am just wondering if I may impose for some more help. As far as I can tell, the 1990 Raybestos Buick is red, not metallic blue. I have decals for the red one, which explains why nothing matched. My question is does anyone have any suggestion on the red? It looks like a flat red from the one photo I have seen. Does anyone have any ideas on a closer match then flat red? Thanks Ash
-
Thank you all for the help, it looks like grey, with flat red netting, but happy to stand corrected. Ash

Hello All Have all 80's NASCARs had the grey chassis? Or do the colors vary? I am looking at Raybestos Buick, but it would be handy to know when painting other NASCAR's. Thanks Ash

Hello All Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the body on the chassis of the Revell Christine pro-mod? I cannot get it to sit right at all. Thanks Ash
-
Hello Not sure if you are have found a solution, but is it worth trying the Revell 1:9 Scale MV Agusta. That seems to have a solid chain. You might be able to adjust to fit. Thanks Ash

Hello Not sure if this help, there's a bloke called Bill B, who has one for sale on Scalemates. Hopefully he might try to contact you here. But by all means if you are on Scalemates, then look him up. as well. Thanks Ash

Thank you all, The Tamiya bikes are really good to build, I have had a go at the Bimota Tesi, which fought me a little with older decals & a couple of operator errors. I also did a Ducati 916, which came together nicely. The paint I used was Tamiya Lacquer paint Mica blue (LP-41) Thanks all Ash

Hello this is my first go at posting a completed bike, It's Garry McCoy's Red Bull Yamaha YZR-500. The decals are a mix of kit decals & aftermarket. Thanks Ashleigh

bump.

Thank you all. So the answer is no. I am wanting to copy windscreens. I have tried parts wanted. I might try to bump it, as I did it over Christmas/new year period. Hmm, Reasonable ability? I have always found something that should be easy is usually not. However I have a go will not loose me anything, so its probably worth having a crack. Thank you all Ash

Hello Does anyone know if you can 3D print/copy clear parts. I cant find anyone with spares of what I need. Thanks Ashleigh
-
Hello all I am going to refresh this, as I may have accidentally breach rules, moving it another bit on forums. I am specifically after parts 218,219,220 & 221. Obviously, any part of this would be appreciated, or any leads. I am happy if someone has a wrecking kit that would be happy to salvage clear pieces from. Even a bit of information, as too whether clear parts can be copied & 3D printed. Thank you Ashleigh

Hello all I am wondering if anyone has the entire clear sprue for Revell 1:25 Plymouth Christine Pro-mod car? They would be willing to send to Australia? Thank you Ash

1958/9 Plymouth Fury: Christine
ash74 replied to ash74's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Hello All Thank you all for the responses, they are much appreciated. I am not sure I am ready to make a 100% accurate one yet...Maybe in the future, So at the moment the engine remains the same. However it is something that is good to know for a future build where I would like it to be accurate. Thanks Ashleigh -
Hello Would anyone know what color would the engine would be on the 1958/59 Plymouth Fury: Christine? Thanks Ashleigh

Folgers IMSA Mustang
ash74 replied to ash74's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
Thank you both, The color I have seemed to rich, but I think I will stick with it. As you have noted it's difficult to find photo's that dont end up being the box art. Even the You tube videos dont really have good images to decipher colors. I do understand that photography from that time might be a little low definition. However, it seems that they do indeed have window nets, just not the "NASCAR" style I was thinking. Thank you all for the help. Ash -
Hello All I am after some guidance for the color on the Folgers IMSA mustang? Does it have a metallic sheen? Also does anyone know if they have window nets? If they do, what type? Thanks Ash
-
Hello All These are a few of my builds. After my last post, I realize how much the camera shows imperfections. I had trouble getting the lines right on the IMSA 7/11 Mustang. The ASA Camaro went OK. I have the Superflo Camaro & the Folgers IMSA Mustang on the workbench at the moment. Hopefully, they will turn out OK, thanks Ash
-
Hello all I dont usually post finished models, due to confidence. I am probably most happy with the Top Fuel. I am happy with Super Clean Olds, but the light is not doing it any favors. The Funny Car, I am not overly impressed with the decal quality, but it's OK, Thanks Ashleigh
-
Hello all Thank you for the guidance. I thought it might of held oil. I never thought of using the wire. That's brilliant. I was imagining having to use the rubber tube/hose they use on the Tamiya motorbikes. Which would be hard to both get a good solid bond & a proper shape. Thank you all Ash
-
Hello All Does anyone make an after market tank hoses that sits between the engine & the rear wing? It has it's own tank. I am not sure what the tank contains? I think it's on the 90's & newer top fuel dragsters. The kit that I have, one of the hoses has snapped. I just wanted to see if there was an aftermarket or if someone has them spare? Before trying to make my own. Which I have learnt wont be nearly as easy as I think it should be!!!! Thanks Ashleigh
-
Hello All Thanks for the help, Blue seems to the correct color. Those photo's are amazing & very helpful, Thank you all Ashleigh
-
Hello All Could anyone shed some light on the color of the '91 Joe Amato Valvoline top fuel, is blue or black? I suspect dark blue, but I cant find any evidence of the correct color. Also the piece under the blower (I think that's it's name?) Thanks Ashleigh
-
Hello All Thanks all for the suggestions, all good. I am trying the Tamiya bright red, as I have this on hand & I couldn't find the guards red I thought I had. Thank you all Ash
