Default Some of my Modded scale models!

Thought id share abit of my scale moddeling ive been doing in my limited spare time...

first off i want to say this is NOT a way to try and sell them, before it gets lockdown...

Here is my first i tried quite a while back:

1: Escort Road going WRC car,
1:18 scale!
Fitted bucket seats,
Fitted Superleggeras
neg front camber




2. Mk2 escort,
1:18 scale!
Done to look like a barn find/abandon
1.3 engine
Minilites, bucket seats, fuel cell, forrest arches




3.Mk2 escort 1.3
1:18 scale!
Fitted with BDA,Chocolate interior to keep the sleeper look
Deep dish RS4 spokes
Lowered alot








Few other pics of them:







Also got these two 1:24 diecast models here modded:

1. RWD Ford Focus:
Escort cossie leather two front seats
Lowered onto multispokes




2. Escort cosworth:
Lower spoiler only
Oz rims, Redtop YB engine, full cage, two front bucket seats





I do have a few others but dont have pics as of yet, most of them will end on ebay to fund on modding some others

Cheers Corey

Cheers lads...

The best way ive found for lowering is most newer models have spring to push up and down like real sus, so make a little circlip type and then push sus up and insert circlip where the gap is and then the spring cant come all the way back down, and just make the circlips thickness to how low you want it...

Parts:

can be found from other models or build up kits or where i get some of my stuff is model shops and sites on the net, Ebay is a good freind too :P
