I have a box of parts for the Revell Auto Transporter. All wheels and tires present, decals and most ramps. See pictures. I’m looking for a 1/32 Triumph TR4, Airfix. 1/32wire wheels. Anything foreign, or parts. Let me know. Perry

I work in dental and nitrile gloves come in black. There wouldn’t be any large section so you’d have to take smaller squares perhaps and do sections at a time. It’s thin and strong. Perry

There was an article a number of years ago in Road & Track about a 'model builder' that was facinating. It centered on ths builder and his super realistic cars. Turned out, he stole real cars and actually shrunk them down. Wish I had that article. It was very well written. Juha's cars remind me of that. Perry

One Off Quiz #32 - Finished

Oh, my. Aluminium siding. Perry -
Very cool. Good for her, and it's a nice clean build. Something I'm still working at doing. Perry

I did like it. It was a Monza, with a 3 speed on the floor. Pretty sporty for a kid in high schrool. Perry

Very nice. I did the same thing with the '69. Mine was a '65 and it was a four door. Had to do some surgery. Used a '67 Camaro top. Close enough. Mine I got for $75, only needed a battery. I sold it a few months later for$150 to the neighbors so I could buy a TR4. The right front wheel fell off it after I sold it. Kind of awkward with the neighbors for a while. Now I have to do a TR4.

Tameo Williams FW07
gbtr6 replied to gbtr6's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
Some more progress. Tameo kits are engineered well, and go together like Tamiya kits, just smaller. They are intense, need to only work on it a few hours then walk away. There is photo etch sides to the cockpit, and the brakes are made of 6 pieces. I like the vented detail. Hard to see. Perry -
I have 2 sets of 1/18 scale low profile tires, measure 1 1/8" OD, 5/8" ID, 5/8" wide. Also, a set of drag type wheels and tires, with axles and brakes. Let me know what you have. Common domestic kits, partials or builts OK, AWB Mustang decals, Foreign stuff. Perry

Tameo Williams FW07
gbtr6 replied to gbtr6's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
It is 1/43. I am trying to get better at clean building. I have to have patience, and use tools. Perry -
Starting work on the Tameo Williams FW07, Regazzoni. It’s pretty simple, no engine. Nice detail and fit, typical Tameo high quality. The green decal looks all wrinkly but it looks great in person. Perry

That really came out pretty. Nice job. Perry

Tameo World Champion Jim Clark Lotus 25

Just getting back to post the finish of this car. Was a fun build. Pictures of final assembly and with big brother. Perry -
Bruce, look forward to seeing it. Should be spectacular. Perry
-
Nice, it does have the copper undertones. It looks great on many vintage Ferrari's. Perry

This is my vote on color. Dare to be different. It's called Nocchiola.

That's Tameo's line, World Champion Tameo. All F1 World champs. Super kits. More detail than normal Tameo kits. Perry -
I contacted someone on that and they are working on a 3D print TR4, which I also had, and a TR6. I'll have to follow up and see what's happening. I have a 1/18 scale die cast that I am building like my car. Only one besides 1/43 I know of so far. I like to get one too. My wife likes to ride in mine, but likes her Z4 to drive better. Perry

Wow, the decals all look like PE in the pictures. I may have to get this kit too. I've had my 6 since '77. Did a frame off about 25 years ago. I keep the top down and drive it every day there's no rain. Better get one before you retire and stash it and stock up on parts. Perry

Thanks Steve. I appreciate it. And Steve did a great job packing the built ups for their trip across the pond. Great person on our board. Perry
