OSV 0 Posted August 2, 2011 Would be nice to get them all scanned to share on line for the Corrado community Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6monkey 1 Posted August 2, 2011 OSV, that was my original idea - to start a Corrado library. I collected articles, press stuff and models from literally around the world. Unfortunately, I just don't have the time and now need the money for my latest project. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted August 3, 2011 Would be nice to get them all scanned to share on line for the Corrado community Well if we all buy a few articles, we can look to do this. Certainly I'll scan the few that I bought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vr6monkey 1 Posted August 4, 2011 Having started listing my Corrado collection, I have come to realize that I am actually quite addicted to all things Corrado and despite needing the money - selling the collection is a mistake, which I know I'll regret. What I will do though is look at OSV's suggestion. It may take a while, but I'll see if I can share stuff with the Forum. I may not own a C at the moment, but there is a reasonable chance I will again some day :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pbradley98 0 Posted August 5, 2011 D'oh! I'd been enviously eying up a couple of your models only to see that you'd ended the items early! Would be excellent to share the articles as and when you can. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6monkey 1 Posted August 5, 2011 Yeah sorry about that, but having sold only a couple of items I started getting withdrawal symptoms :-) Selling my last Corrado VR6 was heart breaking as it was my pride and joy, but I needed the money for a house deposit. Despite currently needing the money to buy a new motor, I don't want to make the same mistake with my collection of Corrado stuff (it would be impossible to replace!!). Whilst I don't have a C at the moment, there is a very good chance I'll end up with another one at some point Finally, I'll also look at starting a threat about models and merchandise (if there is not one already out there??)

pbradley98 0 Posted August 7, 2011 Not sure if there is another thread, but I had a look on the web after I'd been tempted by your stuff and found a US company that's still selling the1/18 Revell Corrado models - they had 5 left (now 4!) in Aqua blue and one in Dark Burgundy, so have ordered one from them - hopefully it'll make it through the post in the next couple of weeks! If anyone else is interested in the last few that they have the website is shown below, but as to whether they're reliable is yet to be seen! http://www.greatmodels.com/~smartcart/cgi/display.cgi?item_num=REV08878 for the aqua blue http://www.greatmodels.com/~smartcart/cgi/display.cgi?item_num=REV08877 for the dark burgundy Bizarrely the burgundy model is $6.15 more expensive!

Jim 2 Posted August 7, 2011 Glad you had a change of heart. If you do manage to scan stuff in, I'll be sure to scan the two articles I bought from you to contribute! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6monkey 1 Posted August 8, 2011 I'm sure you are aware of this, however just be careful you don't get hit with UK import tax. I have bought stuff in the US before at a reasonable price then customs add their bit, making things quite expensive. If you can, you're better finding stuff in the EU - no import tax. Hope this helps. P.S. Out of 25+ models in my collection, the Revell 1:18s are still my favourite :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pbradley98 0 Posted September 9, 2011 Turned up without any extra taxes so think it worked out at £38, not bad for brand new! The detail on it is incredible! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
