Well won a £100 on a scratch card today (dont tell the missis ) so treated myself to this.

 

lol i buy two scratch cards a week and the most ive ever won is £10 and a quid now n then, like your escort mate ive got 1 but mine's modded with a kit.

 

Ahhhhh ok thanks

 

Won 5 lots of £20 on one card. Rich for life.
Its going to look like this one when I get round to it.

 

really like what your doing with this mate .
will look cool when finished , i love the golf too , very original and a good deal of detail on it .
what colour you going to do the capri?

 

Cheers mate its going signal green with white wheels oh and black bonnet and black bib.

 

Sounds sweet, what motor are you going to use.

 

i just brought a yellow escort mk1 from german ebay, sld work out about £45 all in, cheapest anywhere

 

congrats dean, nice car

that capri looks smart so far but dont think the wheels will suit it personally

 

Nice one Colin all you need now is the red avo

 

I dont think so mate but thats what he want.

 

He wants it left standard.

 

cant find one

do an ebay search for 1/24 wheels or find a model website that sell tamiya kits etc, they make millions of different wheels to modify 1/24 kits with

Love that Merc in you're thread matt. Can't beat a stack light.

 

cheers i take it you mean the white & green one??

now my next question is should i repaint the red cossie as a monte edition in the metallic purple or perhaps mallard green?? or should i leave it damn well alone?

 

Sorry ment the red race car.

Purple monte for me mate.

 

oh yeah i forgot i had posted that one

any idea of the colour code of the purple anyone?

 

looks very nice with those wheels

 

Colin this looks the dog dingles mate really suits the wheels

 

Its done for now, i'll add to the cage at some point and add a harness when I get one in the parts bin. lol





The classic banger motor, Ford v6.

dean, mustangs looking class mate, pm me your address

that looks bloody awesome mate, nice to see something different
you can print white decals now then? thats gonna be handy in the future

 

what was that for? a escort cosworth or wheels?

 

Yeah some people seem to be asking silly money for them! you got a good price at £25 +p&p.

 

i got mine just a few weeks bk £40 all in and it still had the packing straps on it, they should go for around that price any more and its scam bidding

 

Thanks, back the the 205 now.

i know, coz i've been tempted to get one from ebay but the prices are rediculous

 

Thanks for the advice!
