Hi, folks,
I've just acquired an Airfix 1/32 Aston Martin DB5. The moulds date from 1967. It'll be hard work, but nothing I can't handle. The exception is the wheels. they've no tread, are hollow inside, and the wheels bear no resemblance at all to wire wheels.
Tyres I can probably find from Scalextric accessories in my LHS, but does anyone know where I can find 1/32 wire wheels? Would looking for etched inserts be a practical alternative? The wheels are 15/32" / 12mm in diameter.
Thanks in anticipation.
Chris
