Sourcing wheels and tires
Posted by modelhead on Thursday, July 23, 2009 7:12 PM

 

  Hi everyone, I'm mainly an aircraft and armor guy but have been buying car kits lately. I bought a kit off e-bay recently and its missing the wheels and tires, it is the Revell 1/25 Soff Seal '57 Chevy Pro Sportsman, where can I find replacement wheels and tires?

  Thanks, Tom

You could try Revell. They're pretty good about getting you the parts you need.

Thanks for the heads up, I don't know why I didn't think of contacting Revell ......... a mind is a terrible thingSmile [:)]. Heading over to Scale Auto Mag now. Thanks again.

Revell used to send parts for free, but too many folks took advantage, so I think they are charging for them now (at least they were not long ago).  Scale Auto has some nice folks there to trade with that may cost you little if anything.  Just be sure to pay it forward if they do.  Karma is a good thing to be on the right side of.
