Guest Sickfish Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Hi guys, do any of you know if these wheels have been made & are available to purchase, from where & who?? I have the Revell Challenger kit & Keith Marks decals to make the Hurst Edition Challenger but really need the wheels... Cheers & thanks for any help, Cliffo
Jared Roach Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 I'm pretty sure they are avalible in resin, because I think I saw them in a SA mag with the rest of the conversion kit. I'll see if I can find it, because right now I don't remember.
Guest Sickfish Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Ok, thanks Jared I have most of the last few years of SA, do you know what month it was in?? Cheers Cliffo!
Guest Sickfish Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Thankyou DoubleD! Much appreciated!
Zoom Zoom Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 I have seen the entire Hurst conversion kit (shown above), a good friend bought the set at our show. Excellent set in general, but honestly the wheels are not very good; detail is clunky and they're too small in diameter, probably to fit the 18" tires in the AMT Challenger kits. A better set of wheels that look very much like the Hurst wheels come in the Maisto (diecast) 2006 era Mustang GT kit. I don't know of any other wheels that come close. Here they are on my "Flashback" model seen in my avatar; just substitute gold for where I painted the recessed areas black:
High octane Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Cliff, They are available from Mike's Scale Speed Shop and he advertises in the "other" mag.
Guest Sickfish Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Thanks guys & thankyou Bob.. Don't know if I'll be able to find that Mustang but I'll have a look-see @ my local H.S. I don't need the decals as I have the Keith Marks set & after your advice on Mike's speed shop wheels I don't think I'll be getting them. I have a really good set of Aoshima 20in rims that I might use instead... Thanks again everyone Cliffo
