Actually I am about 30 minutes' worth of work away from finishing an Eclipse ... if I hadn't started it yet, I'd be all over this GB.

But I'll watch. Cool [8D]

Good luck to everybody!!

This may not be getting the interest you think it should because there is another forum dedicated to cars that's affiliated with this forum. Go to scaleautomag.com and you'll probably see more interest.

That being said, it's still good to see some car GB's going on in this forum. I'm particulary enjoying the Muscle car GB.

Building Now:

1/48 Academy Bf-109G6 - 100%

1/48 Tamiya F4U-1A - 5%

Upcoming:

1/48 Revell F-14D

I did a little more research last night. The main resin kit is made by Planet X and runs a cool US$ 120 ! (They also make kits of the two multi-colored Pursuit/Interceptor cars from the beginning of the movie, also for $120 each).

So, unless I win the lottery between now and next week, it looks like I'll be trying to track down the Aoshima kit. It's out of production, but I've seen it for sale in a couple of places so I think it's still generally available.

Let me know if you find anything else.

No, not a scratchbuild. There is a plastic kit by Aoshima and several guys who sell resin ones. Haven't decided which one to try yet, but I've wanted to build one for a while, so this may be my inspiration.

Depending on the time frame, I might be interested. My street tuner would be Mad Max's V-8 Interceptor.

Hey paknick I know this car is not a tuner but I thought I would show you a car that I have been working off and on for two years. she will be awsome when she gets finished. most of the chassie and motor is scratch built, the tubbing for the rear tires has been a chore but very fun. it will have a scratch built fuel cell and fuel lines when finished.

make a link to your GB in auto section. and decide which section you want the GB to stay in. that way people won't get confused with posts. i am putting the badge i designed at the other section.
