i dont kno him, maybe he should get a decent size rim on tha escort tho.

 

you definatley have a habit mate. a good habit as this is a investment thats what i tell the wife lol lol

 

yes true over sized a wee bit

 

if we were quickmate every one is a sleep we could fill a few pages up with chit chat so they have to read through them all to find out whats been going on lol lol lol nothing at all ha ha ha

 

wish youd offered me that rb5 for the rx7 id have ripped your hand off lol
did you make the mcrae 4door yourself? looks very nice bar the missing windows.

ive only been seriously collecting for about a year and a half, although ive had millions of bburagos and maistos since i was crawling, still got 20+ of them on my back shelves and keep my favorites on my 'cool wall', try to limit myself to jap cars but lately been very tempted to branch out into hot hatches and cossies!

shame exoto and cmc etc dont do a wider range of cars, i cant help feeling that having a cabinet full of ferraris etc is very generic and boring..each to their own though

 

Morning all, just had a read, lol

 

someone should do the royal nail mk3 escort cossie van

 

Finally just got myself a yellow XR3 of eBay Ł25.25 + Ł8 p&p

 

Today ive added the drivers side decals to my RS1600i












I did mess up the bonnet decal a bit tho. Other side will be done soon along with some show plates.

escortnutter & mentalistdave, thanks again for the decals. Their perfect. If the pics are good enough, you can use them on eBay if you want. Can do more when its finished.


Andy
