oldscool Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Would anyone other than me like to have a kit of this car? I think the body styling would lend itself well to customizing. gus
Jantrix Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Oh heck yeah. I think any of us would. It's a classic body style.
Eshaver Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Uh if it were the P- 1800 Sportwagon , perhaps yes . Ed Shaver
Foxer Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 (edited) Air-Trax makes a 71-73 P1800ES resin kit. It does still need a donor kit. Here's a link to a previous thread about Air-Trax. I also wish they did the wagon! Edited August 20, 2011 by Foxer

oldscool Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Air-Trax makes a 71-73 P1800ES resin trans kit. Here's a link to a previous thread about Air-Trax. I also wish they did the wagon! I would prefer to stick with styrene myself, but that is a nice looking transkit. gus
mrmike Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Would anyone other than me like to have a kit of this car? I think the body styling would lend itself well to customizing. gus I would love to have a kit of the Volvo P1800! Of course, I would have to build Simon Templar's version from The Saint!
Tony T Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Uh if it were the P- 1800 Sportwagon , perhaps yes . Ed Shaver Would love a Sportwagon!
MrObsessive Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 I have Tapani's P1800, and while it will need some cleanup----it's quite nice and there's no pinholes that I see to deal with. I once owned a '65, and I'd like to replicate that car. His builds up into a '61-'62...........wouldn't take much work to turn into a '65.
MrObsessive Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Would love a Sportwagon! Tapani does make an 1800ES (the Sportwagon) from pictures I've seen of it it looks just like the 1:1! I believe the master was done by Juha Airio, so you know it'll be correct.
Nitro Neil Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 (edited) Count me in on any version of the 1800. The resin Volvos nearly $150. That just too much. Edited August 20, 2011 by Nitro Neil
wisdonm Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 I would like a '62, best looking grill and integrated chrome. I also had one as my first race car. No wagons. $100+ is too much.
