  3. Thanks Tom,yeah i like the ford better.not sure on what to paint it.custom it or keep it simple.do they have custom tow trucks over the otherside of the pond? Rich
  4. !!!....you sure thats a model? how real it looks. rich
  5. right,thought i would start this one whilst i wait for parts for the camaro police car project....OK starting with two kits,one chevy and one ford. i don't really like the chevy truck,bit to box like.so i thought i would mate the back end of the tow truck kit,with the front of the ford f150......and this is what I've come up with the shaded areas of the models are not being used,and as you can see went together really easy.so hopefully can get most of this finished before i get the parts to finish the camaro.......hope you like. thanks, rich
  6. Ahh man you are a star!!!.....yes please if that's ok? Then if i use the front end of that chassis,i won't need to use those exhaust huggers then,will i? Thanks, Rich
  7. God bless America.......
  8. Thanks Eelco,that's really great of you.but I'm Also stuck on how to make the steering frame fit,and engine mounts!!!!.....two days I've googled,drawn,sweated,drank beer and still can't make anything work!! I really do want to put the hemi in,but it's brought me to a dead end. Is there any front subframe that could fit a 69 camaro chassis,and still allow me to fit the hemi? Thanks, Rich
  9. i fully understand now,so thanks for clearing that one up.....i did get a jar of tamiya x-6 orange.looks close enough rich

  11. Hi Dave thanks for posting the pic.....and to be honest,I'm thinking of sticking with the standard engine.as I'm having a right nightmare trying to source parts and making it fit,grrrraaa!!!!..... The hemi is from the mpc ertl dodge charger 500 kit built 2 ways. Rich
  12. Really?......why is that?

  15. I own a focus ST,and it's been remapped and chipped which now takes me from the standard 225bhp to the new 295bhp.which at half of the price of the RS gives me the same bhp as the RS But i still would give both my kidneys for one in the old schools RS green.mabe in a years time when they drop in price........
