Scale-Master Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 Just a quick little side project. Built it start to finish this morning. It's 1/64th scale.
Dave Van Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 I need details!!! kit, slot car body?? NICE
Scale-Master Posted September 6, 2020 Author Posted September 6, 2020 It's a kit by Kyosho. Not a slot car, but the friend that gave it to me is converting others in the series to scale slot cars.
Silver Foxx Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 Nice work in this , looks great , well done . Nice to see the little ones .
TonyK Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 Wow! Fun to see different types of "model" building. One of my favorite cars and driver too.
Dave Van Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 I have never heard or seen these 1/64 kits....look great....but the ones I found for sale were over $25 so I gotta pass.....that's about what the Tamiya 1/20 kits go for on ebay! They are cool but I see them as $15 kits.....Greet idea Koyosho.....price needs fixing

They come in series and the best way to buy them is if you find a complete box/set for sale on evil bay. They come prepainted and decaled already and are a total of like six pieces or so. Each kit comes with a tiny screw driver, as they assemble pretty much like a hotwheels car, except instead of rivets you have two little screws. They can be a lot of fun and display very well. hey can also get really pricey for certain models.
Phildaupho Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 Great looking model in any scale but outstanding in 1/62

Monty Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 Glad you have the dexterity to build stuff in the smaller scales; I'm not sure I could pull that off. Looks fantastic. Like someone else said, it seems like Aurora made an AFX G-plus slot car of this or something similar in the late '70s/early '80s.

Looks fantastic. I am pretty sure you can pull it off and you will have a blast doing it.Half the fun of these little gems is their simplicity and the great result achieved. They are super simple to put together, requiring no glue or paint and they display really well. This is what they look like in their package. Seven pieces if you count the two screws that hold everything together.
doorsovdoon Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 That's cool. It even comes with a little screwdriver!
