This whole model collecting and modifying thing gets expensive.
I now have over 300 1:18 Ford models in standard and modified trim.
Keep having new ideas, seeing what others make etc, plus new models coming out, starting to mount up now.
Then theres the real cars too.
When will it all end lol
Saying that, just priming the wide arch escorts today

yeah i've noticed, some of the models are very expensive to buy in the first place, where do you guys get your mud flaps from? like the ones on the yellow mk3 escort or do they come with that model?
