only thing is if it has a small back box like the 1.1 mk1 escorts i got the tail pipe will be bigger the the box itself

 

make a box out of milliput and paint it black with the polished pipe on simples will look a damn sight better than them 1's that con man bmw nut makes mate plus self satisfaction you built them yourself that way you can decide box size style and bick were the pipe comes out of the box what angle it comes out and everything im gonna make a load and to my friends on here they are free but gonna sell some on ebay too cheap just to give people the chance to get them without being robbed plus gives me something to do

 

where can i get a mk 3 capri in 1 18th like phat c's one?

 

Make a new system out of a straw

 

wow ,
not been on for a while as work is mental at the moment.
there's been a fair bit of bitching going on...lol
i rarely list any fords on ebay as most of mine have a personal value to me.
although when i do they do seem to go for what i would call good money , not in the same league as some sellers on ebay but enough for me!
the biggest sale i have had was the mk1 escort estate which went for a lot more than i thought it would and i also got an order for another 4 from the german buyer.
i do believe listing worldwide increases the earning potential for any modded models but also has drawbacks.
with regards to streetfighters models i think it is a combination of very good photography on his part , in fairness probably the best on the bay at the moment , good attention to detail , quantity he can list at anyone time and the ability to list similar models to others listed and as he says hard to find rare models to start with .
which you seem to have a never ending stream of i say jelously!!!
few modders will have the guts to modify a model which has already cost them in the region of Ł50.00 to buy
he has also been doing them for a long time and has a good repeat customer base.
what is the first thing we all check before bidding on anything?
FEEDBACK!
his is in the thousands and that is why people buy his models.
most of us tend to give up too easily if the model does not sell for what we think it should and dont list anymore , this is where we all go wrong.
any model is only worth what a buyer is prepared to pay for it.
there is now an ever increasing amount of stuff available to buy for modding on the bay , and it is getting easy to find stuff that we couldnt before at good prices.
i think the models on this site are truely all unique in there own way and as mentalist dave said they are all original in there own right.
i will always offer help to anyone if i can and often do to people on here.
decal wise i like others produce my own , and quality is important .
decal dynamics on here produce manufacturer quality decals that are far superiour to any i can do but mine cost me nothing....lol.
keep up the good work everyone and keep the pics comming.

 

You wont find any other Mini's like I did mine.

In my local model shop, they sell alu tubeing. Just cut that to the legnth I need. Havent tried polishing it to get a nice shine on it.

This is it. Comes in 3 different sizes. One for 1/18, one for 1/24 & another for 1/43.

 

judging by his other items he lives round the corner from me and has a real one of those (or had)

Steve have you had much chance to get anything done with those parts yet mate or been full of busy?

 

a lot of faith in that tin of dulux mate! haha looks good so far

pete subaru-pics-now-lazy twat

 

It was about Ł2 for a legnth of it and you could probally get about 7 out of it, maybe more.

going for the lot this weekend petey.
going to do a load of stuff over the holiday and yours is top of the list mate!

 

Ha ha ha yeah it was a bit wobbly but i did put cushion under it just in case, it's safe tho in the house drying
and yeah Dave dulux paintpod works well lol ha ha ha

 

im bidding on a mk3 capri on ebay at the minuite 1 of the ginger 1's

 

aye alan its there dont worry lol

heres the scooby, im over the moon with it, ive never had a decent make rally/racing car before so its amazing, especially compared to the bburago version of the same car i used to have (which i thought was mint when i had it lol )



even the doorcards and parcel shelf are carbon but i couldnt get a decent pic



brakes are my favorite bit lol..



only thing i dont like about it is the headlights but Autoart seem to have trouble with them on a lot of cars so i can live with it lol

 

quality mate looking forward to seeing it!

 

the h/lights look ok mate looks cool i quite fancy it tbh ive got the sunstar 1 same as that which is quite good but the detail is nothing like that i hope my 22b burns wrc scoob looks as good at crimbo as i never took much notice when i looked

 

petey what have you done with the black wheels off your yellow type-r ??

 

yeah theyre okay but theyre just one bit of chrome moulded plastic, i think ill take them out and get some flat silver or grey paint on the housing just to make them look a bit better. the headlights on AA R34's are crap too i think, the 22b wrc's are mint ive seen a few high res pics of them

 

sent roy them today, got some standard evo 7 wheels back for my evo 6

 

some nice models.

 

that scoobie looks mint pete
