1/10 scale RC '67 GTO
keyser replied to SfanGoch's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Agree. Charger too. What is deal with scales? I recall 1/10 but that was more approximate. 1/27 I’ve not really seen much other than box-sized diecasts. RC has come far. Cheap RC helo has 4 channel + and pretty easy to fly. -
Early Ferrari Models 1949-1967
keyser replied to Gramps46's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yes, a few friends got hit. Paul and Susie lost everything. Great people. Never know how strong you are until there’s no other choice. Same number from site? Thank you for update. -

Are Paul and Susie ok? Recovering lives? I think of them. -

Pretty sure Paul cast a 330LMB I have as well. RnD did one but not as good, have that too. MFH did nice 275 4 cam Comp, and I forget who did a 14 louver TdF. I need to go get pics of mine if anyone wishes. I have similar GTO64 but forget where it came from. Brad did a corrected long-nose D-type looong ago. OT but I think he did great 14 louver as well. Fun thread, glad it got revived. -

What did you see on the road today?
keyser replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
That’s a Gran Sport Vette body kit. Looks great. Iirc they can have C5 guts too. Kurt, that’s the new postmaster’s “Stance Up” program. ? -
Completely agree Matt. Time with daughter and son building worth it, and it’s easier to have completed work that’s nice. Here’s a couple models/representations/rivet free assemblies?? The GT is a Megabloks kit. We have the ones you mentioned too. Westfalia camper opens up roof with canvas, tables, bunks, etc. Tom G will like it if he doesn’t have one. The Opera House has business card in lower left to gauge size. All these built by my kids with me sorting parts

Great find. I have the Techno 250 proto. Pretty car. Actually would like another for this. But it wouldn’t get finished. https://www.collierautomedia.com/the-bosss-car-enzo-ferraris-ferrari-400-superamerica/amp I haven’t seen this thread much. Overlapped with transplant I think. I’ll run thru it and see if I can add. -
Giant SUVs and trucks, lousy driver training, and entitlement. Lol. Parking by Braille.

You know better than most of us. Lol Here’s kit I mentioned. “Cheaper” than I remember. https://www.hiroboy.com/124_Bugatti_Vision_Gran_Turismo_VGT_Full_Resin_Model_kit--product--11996.html Someday I’ll show my 1/24 street P4/5. Sadly at this point my resin won’t get done methinks.

Agree. But the build is point. I can’t stand how they look, but they’re trick. If it brings kids into hobby why not? And there aren’t any kits of a Chiron or Porsche 991 or 992 so that’s perhaps worth looking at. If you haven’t priced Lego big kits, and they sell out mostly, they’re doing something right. Wish they had external sheet metal. Megabloks did awesome Ford GT. Daughter and I built that decade ago.

The Bugatti Chiron Lego in article has thousands of pieces. Son has one. Pistons(16) move when halfshafts move, shifter changes gears in box, steering is insane. He missed a step in steering link assy. 75% of front end done. Took me almost 2hours to figure out how to get front end apart without disassembling it down to firewall. He learned about how you have to be able to service stuff you design and build. Good lesson for STEM kid headed to engineering. The architectural Legos are absolutely models. Fun fact, Lego makes more tires than any other company.

Don’t forget the ever popular “pull into lot off busy street, then stop”. So anyone behind you is now about to be Tboned. Another is -get in car, then wait minutes before actually starting car and going. Not on phone, not checking anything, just sitting. Happened at transplant clinic, no other parking. I practically do a burnout to get out of there.

Looked in vain for this car today. Do you have a source? Double Horses is Jiaye toys, they have a Bentley Mulsanne sedan in 1:24 I need. Ebay has little save M6 and M4 DTM, and a 6 door Mulsanne. I think they did the CSL concept too. Jiaye/DH seems to have something with Rastar as well. I found a Huayra spider today, 1:24, that may be theirs. Gary, the Maisto is a regular Chiron. This was a one off, there is a resin kit out there I’ve seen ages ago. Hope you’re well Love your collection. Help. Stuff to buy.

1/18 Revell Mercedes Benz 220 SE Planai Classic
keyser replied to smartdriver's topic in Diecast Corner
Nice work, and funny story. Fintails finally getting some love. Decent rally car. Fender work great, as is hammer work. Keep them coming, nice replicas. -
I’m confused why you pointed out flaw after all that work. I’m sure he’s aware, and I agree it is hard to grind on 30+yo metal. Zinc is not very soft, nor replaceable. A zit on Keira or Heidi doesn’t kill the beauty, esp in unseen area. In diecast it is difficult to change some things and not wreck the model. Plastic is easy. Still awesome build. Sorry for interruption Helmut.

Really nice work. OM and Unimogs of this era great looking. What stripper do you use? Looks awesome.

Good. Modelers need hands. Hands feet shoulders and ankles really hard to fix. All y’all be well.
