Luc Janssens Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 (edited) Hello all, I'm wondering what European automotive subjects you as a North American, wish to see as a 1/24 scale plastic model kit. BTW please also post the State you're living in (CA, MN, IL, MI, Alberta, Quebec, etc.....) It's no poll, just wondering what lives, on the other side of the big pond. Thanks in advance for participating!! Luc Janssens Belgium Edited April 30, 2011 by Luc Janssens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Smith Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 (edited) Bug Eye Sprite Gunze Sangyo - same with the Isetta I would love a Triumph TR-4 in 1/24. Have to make do with Airfix 1/32 for now. A TR-6 would also be very cool. Oh, and a Volvo 303 - or one of those similar kooky looking go anywhere rigs.

charlie8575 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 A Volvo P-1800 More Volvo wagons- what car is more iconic? More M-Bs of the 1960s, especially the common cars like the 190 and 220 sedans. The convertibles and a couple of SLs would be nice, too. A Jaguar XJ in any body, but especially the sedan. Some of the Vauxhalls and Opels that were sold stateside by Pontiac and Buick dealers. Saab 92-93-96-99-900-9000 (pre mid-1990s.) A Volvo S80 (I always though those were pretty cars.) I'd like to see the Gunze-Sangyo series of itty-bitty European cars they made in the mid-1980s re-released. A 1950s Bentley Continental A Ford Anglia that can be built stock. A Ford Taunus Citroen DS-19/21, especially a brake. Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygre Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 OK Luc - here's my list: BMW 2002tii (WAY overdue!) Facel Vega HK500 (Heller was supposed to do this way back when) MGA 1600 Twin Cam Renault Dauphine (another one that deserves modern treatment) Ferrari 250 Berlinetta Lusso Ferrari 166 Barchetta Ferrari 250GT TdF Ferrari 330 LMB Porsche 550 Spyder Porsche 912 (1966) Mercedes-Benz 230SL/280SL (1963-1968) Triumph TR4A/TR250 Triumph Spitfire Jaguar XK120 Coupe Jaguar XK150 Jaguar D-Type Maserati Birdcage Tipo 61 DeTomaso Mangusta (1969-1972) Fiat 124 Spider Citroen DS19/DS21 Citroen SM MGB GT I could think of more but...! If I had to pick my top three - 2002tii, Lusso, Facel Vega. Hope that helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Myers Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 How about an MGA multi-kit? MGA 1500,1600, twincam, and options to build each year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Gibbons Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I agree with many of the cars mentioned above, but even though they've already been listed, I would love to see the '61-'64 SAAB 96 in 1/24. Heaven would be Tamiya doing this kit in both stock and rallye options. A 95 wagon would be welcome, too. While I'm at it, a Sonnet I and a Volvo P544 would be great. How about a Lotus Cortina, especially Jim Clark's rallye version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Sumner Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I'd like to have a Triumph TR-4a but also include the 6 cylinder TR-6 engine so I could build a replica of the 68 TR-250 that I once owned in 1971. That was a cool little car in spite of all the stuff that broke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember driving back with my friend after going to the Canadian Grand Prix in '93 or so, and being passed by one of the "Talbo" 9/10 replicas on the NYS Thruway. Artwork in motion.
