The DIS series CDI have extremely heavy anti vibration potting on the boards and it is very messy. Even attempting to get to the components on the board will be an extreme pain in the arse. Only person I would entrust that too is Victor, but I doubt once he opens it up unless it's a simple and immed...
Nah, not Lotus. Two red ting. Most of the resin models show better exterior detail that the die casts. Most of them, including the very costly ones have no opening features and detail at all. MR, Amalgam, Spark, Peako are all fantastic detail with no working features. They tend to pride themselves o...
Not the best pictures, but hope you like. Both the Tyrrell 006 and the blue/yellow P34 are signed by Jackie Stewart and Jody Scheckter respectively on the rear wings.
Oh....and that's a 1973 Lotus Type 72E, Ronnie Peterson on the far left of the Tyrell 006.
Exoto: 1992 Williams F1, FW14B, Nigel Mansell, Drivers and Constructors World Championships winner, 1:18. Out of production and very very difficult to come by.
Image 029104 has two Senna FW16 Williams F1 Cars, one is the Minishamps non-branded version and the other appears to be the same Minichamps with the Rothmans livery.........that is as rare as rare can be and an extreme collectible. Can you confirm that? I have the decal set to convert my own non-bra...
Well the car ran a 13.0 on 100shot with the SR16. This engine (without nitrous) already makes the same torque and power as the SR16 did on nitrous. Once I get the cams timed optimally to suit the extractors and the inlet manifold I plan on hitting it with a 130shot. The car will not make 400whp as I...
Well it was pressure. In short: Tuned on the dyno on Friday and Saturday. Chasing the cam timing and trying to get it correct. With the ITBs on top of the motor it's a PITA to get to the cam gears so things are slow. Anyway, went on Sunday to Camden in an attempt to see how it behaves.........not to...
With the scoop and ram-pipes facing forward I discovered a terrible combination.................with the rain. Hope I can get it tuned for this Sunday.
Some more 1:12 models that came in yesterday. The GT40's are the 1st and 2nd place cars of the 1966 Le Mans 24hr. Ford also placed 3rd with the gold No.5 car (but I do not have that one in 1:12).
I had the display cases custom built by a friend in Princess Town. If you need the contact, please send me a message from the contact page on my web site (link in my signature).
