Bojmobile 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Herisites - any more pics on the go? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Will get some up tonight as i should be putting the shell back on the base. I think it needs another coat of lacquer though as its not quite shiny enough! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bojmobile 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Can never have too much lacquer! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Yeah thats true so i will give it another coat or even 2 maybe! What do you think to these wheels (providing they dont cost too much) they are a much better match to the last ones. They come black but painted silver look fairly similar i reckon??

corradophil 3 Posted February 23, 2007 herisites, Have a look here http://babelfish.altavista.com/ You can enter web pages which you want to translate, it makes the occasional error, but its very good. Some of the translations will make you laugh. I was looking on German Ebay for a Porsche 911 flat 6 engine for his T25 van, and it came up with strange things about "Engine farms" :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swfblade 0 Posted February 23, 2007 wow that is cool! I didnt even know you could pull those models apart!! *gets on ebay to order his own and start* :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted February 23, 2007 swfblade they are a piece of pi$$ to take apart mate, the shell just screws off the base. Exterior trims like the grill, headlights etc are clipped on but have melted blobs of plastic holding them in, they easily come of but you just need to put a blob of glue on after to hold them in place. Also the interior seats are one unit so you cant mod each seat individually but thats not a problem. Only problem i came across was the rear windscreen which is pop rivetted on so the only way to remove is to drill it out but i just masking taped it up as i couldnt be bothered :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
