    My Meyers Manx

    Nice clean build. I really look forward to building one my self.
  2. Thank You! I've done some buisness with him before, and he got more then the Jeep that I need. I knew about the Jeep, but had forgotten it had a engine. That thing called age, is sneaky.
  3. Wild! Can't wait to see how this one will look when finished.
  4. A lovely little project. I'd like to have the complete bike my self. I got some of the pieces, as I have collected some of the '62 annuals, but far from all. I also have the Gocart frame.
  5. The stock Isetta was a 2 seater. But the raildragster was of course a singelseater. There have been rails with all kind of microcar bodies. Actually not only as modelcars, but in real life as well. Hot Wheels have one wild Isetta with the body ahead of a wild engine, and a topfuelwing. If You dare sitting over the front axel of a topfueler, You might find it thrilling. Love this Deora project. I find my self playing with the idea using traditional parts only. Dropping the engine, for a GMC turbin. and using a two tonne chassis.
  6. Hi guys! There are some kits that have AMC, Rambler, Jeep straight sixes. I'd like too replicate a '70s Jeep 258 cui for a Cherokee Chief project I've started. Now, is there a resinversion out there? Or do I have too source one from a Pacer, '65 American, or something else in styrene?
  7. The '60 is awsome. A real stand out. The box on the '72 is one I'd like to have in my own stash of truckparts.
  8. Those in gold, in a overloaded Lowrider...............................
  9. When it comes to front ends, and rearends, why not make the body with these off. Then make seperate front, and rear, parts for the different cars. I would imagine it would even make it easyier too cast. Then You also have the different front/rear, for other versions of the '73/'74 Chevelles. Maybe even El Caminos. I can't say I don't like the Coupe, but those SW's, sedans, and trucks ain't bad either.

    Porsche 911

    Nice! I love those old aircoolers.
  11. That is a nice idea. Those "meaty" rear drums might be overkill, but I like them.
  12. That is one lovely wagon. Thank You for shareing.
  13. Nice too see 4 doors in 1/25 scale. Nice build
  14. Juha is a very busy man. I'm just happy he find time making some few castings of his excellent masters. He is also a gentleman of first class, tries too share as much he manage, but he has to set limits on his time. But he might be a member here, just reading what we say. I know he like to see what is happening in the modelcar community.
  15. July 27-28. Even belive my wife have summervacation then. Could do the trip in several steps, having a vacation in Denmark, and Germany. She hates spending hours in a car, but I might make one nice travelroute to persuade her. Your build got a more retro look when beeing green. Is it Tamiya Olive Greene from spraycan? I have to admit though, that I think it looked better in white.
  16. They are kits. PE wires. I think if You wish them ready made, you have to pay a bit more. You might contact South Eastern Finecast directly, asking if they sell them ready made as well. Be sure that tires are included. http://www.sefinecast.co.uk/ My self are going to order the wheel kits for the MGB, MGTC, Austin 7, as well as theire Rover V8 engine. I found this picture where these wheels are used.
  17. Incredible work. You makes it looks easy, even though it is not.................. Have too arest You on the wheels. South Eastern Finecast makes MGB wheels in 1/24 scale. These would be very close to correct for You in 1/25. Also the price is half the one You payed. Price is 14.04 £
  18. Hi! Just got this picture from Finland. I don't know which donor that would be the best at the moment, but sees there are missing tires, springs, kingpins, and rear axel. Price will be about 100 euros if compared to theire other kits with equal details. Air-Trax is a company in evolvment. The more practice in the technics of casting, the better they will be doing so. With this I mean some of theire older castings need more work then some of theire newer. This Opel is mastered by Juha Airio, and I got the picture from him. If interest in theire models, I'm willing to help. No extra charges.
  19. It is 1/25 scale. It was only available in 2nd issue of MPC's '32 Imperial LeBaron. It have also been issued by Replica&Miniatures of Maryland. Lucky me have managed to find three unbuilt MPC kits the last two years, afther years, and years, hunting for it.
  20. Nice to see someone dare making it even more of a offroader. Waited for years getting one of these, or several, so this reissue was just in time. Look forward to see Yours finished.
  21. That seemed to go rather easy after all. With so many mods, it's not given You can use as many kitparts as wanted. Still thrilled abouth this one, and wish to see more.
  22. Just been reading the whole thread. Amazing work. Thank You for shareing.
  23. As I like the A100, I have to like this one. Beautifull craftmanship. I even like the idea with a bedcover, but maybe You should paint it, or cover it with some fuzzy fuhr that fit the interior, or exterior, or both. Also think that the bedcover would look better with deeper sides.
  24. For some years I've wished to replicate this one: I'm planing a order from South Eastern Finecast as well these days, thereby I will add theire wirewheels. As You not put any date to it, it allows me to complete some of my ongoing projects, and have this as a nice "sidedish".
