Just completed this project which I started during Xmas break. Lots of fiddly detail painting required eg Window frames , will likely remove the front spoiler when I race it as it's only held on by 3 tiny pins which will break on the first crash.....
I spaced the rear body mounts as the front was higher than the Rear, plus raised the driver, as stock he looked like a 2 yr old who couldn't see over the dashboard!
Used Tamiya Panel paint to highlight hood, boot gaps and air grills.
The livery is based on a actual car I found on a Race car broker's website.
Next job is to set up the chassis for wood track racing( always something to do).

I have a new Carrera digital set up. I'm looking for some F1 cars. Since Carrera doesn't make F1 cars, what are my options?

I’m Steve and I live in Minnesota USA. I found a used SCX 1/32 set and I starting to plan a track around the space available to me. I also have a AFX track from my previous house that I’m going to set up again. I’m hoping to retire in a couple of years which will give me more time for this fun hobby!!

Cheers!!

Info from a couple of Facebook groups - a heads up on a scammer who has been defrauding people for some six months now. LINK

It is probably not her real identity but she advertises in Marketplace the same selection of Scalextric cars again and again for a ridiculously low price, gets people to pay by PayPal 'friends and family', never delivers the goods and blocks them the minute they complain. I believe she is running a similar scam with Hornby trains. It has been reported many times but Facebook allows it to continue. Numerous people who should know better have fallen for it.

As always, if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is!

Good Morning All,

I'm entering back into HO Slot Cars again, and need some professional DIY assistance. Back in the 60's my dad built a large fold up into the wall cabinet platform that held my track. It was incredible. I want to do the same and need a source to plan off of with my dimensions for my garage wall. I want it to be enclosed to minimize the dust factor, but still fold up into the cavity that allows about 12 inches of height for the track. 

Any direction you can give will be greatly appreciated. I have searched the web, but have not found the details needed for this project.

Thanx!

Thanks to youtube knowing what we regularly watch todays find is a good one.

Take a bodyshell, remove the paint and decals, repaint and re-livery with waterslide decals made in an inkjet printer.

Clive sent me a cool body combo when I was not doing well health wise. It sure cheered me up. Mission accomplished!

A Dash Motorsports chassis fits like a glove.

Thanks a million, Clive!
