LDO Posted August 3 Posted August 3 A Tamiya Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC Lorinser. That was a tuning firm that did mostly cosmetic and interior upgrades. It was only issued once, in 1982. I had one back around 1984 or so, when it could still be found in a hobby shop. I found a good deal on eBay and couldn’t resist. 8

Remember, there IS NO decal sheet with it. You will have to cobble together what you might want as in instrument cluster, etc.

Sounds like a challenge.

Sounds like a challenge. Nope. I was going to use sized tape or perhaps create a decal. I have woodgrain and instrument decals in the stash that I can cobble together.
meechum68 Posted August 3 Posted August 3 Snagged a second set of Tamiya nippers, and I have 2 pack of the KATA coming in as well. Will be here tomorrow. I will have a Tamiya and a Kata in my travel tool bag! Can't ever not have too many sets of nippers! 4
TarheelRick Posted August 4 Posted August 4 Had a pretty good sale day at the Model Car Builders of NC, SC and Virginia Model Contest/Swap Meet in Winston Salem, North Carolina yesterday. But as always I had to pick up a few items. First was the 47/48 Chevy coupe Moebius repop, a set of 3D printed slicks with Cragar mags and dragster wires, a 3D printed toolbox to fit a stepside pickup (upcoming project), and a older resin 1960 2dr Ford Galaxie post-sedan. Won the Dodge Coronet w/trailer in the raffle. Got a chance to make one really quick run around the tables, some mighty fine work there. Looking forward to the next one. 3
