Author Topic: Which one to go for... (Read 1070 times)

I can see myself adding another Model kit to the Pile this month... but which one?

There's this Bullnose Trans Am on eBay USA at 1:12th Scale currently at £45

Or this 65 Vette from a local company at a Massive 1:8 Scale and £47, that would be a major project because at that size the detail has to be immense

What do you think guys? I'm swaying towards the Vette atm...

The T/A would fit with the other 1:12 kits that I haven't built yet! One day i'll find time to build all this lot!

Also where would I display a 1:8 scale car that over 1/2 meter long!

Thats a good kit actually, those Revell 3 in 1 kits are cool, Street, Stock or Drag

Don't forget to get the Can of Ford Transit White for when you build it... after all you may as well get the colour right...

It's already white
