| Amazing. Very cool. I like the dynamarks at the top. What scale size are they?
I dont think id have the paitence to build something like that from scratch - have a hard enough time with customizing model car kits sometimes. | |

- thats amazing, i couldn't do that im not patient enough
just curious would you sell that speedex model? Give me a month i could build another just e-mail me at steelemichael74@yahoo.com or just P.M me here . I have to get some supplies to build more. Oh trust me I am not the most patient person ever. when i get the urge to rush i have to walk away. its getting started again is the problem. i learn that taking notes on my whiteboard helps alot. - Trcustoms wrote:
- WOW!! What did you make them out of and how did you do it?
modelers grade sheet styrene , and wheels and other parts from my junk box.or what parts toys i find at flea markets. - dangeroustoys56 wrote:

I dont think id have the paitence to build something like that from scratch - have a hard enough time with customizing model car kits sometimes. They are approx 1-24 why this scale is b/c i originally wanted to have a lawn tractor for a diorama shop i want to build for my 1-24 scale model cars. It kinda got out of control lol. Also Building models , working on the murrat and making Videos keeps mu butt out of trouble. This comes from building and detailing in Ho scale you know model railroad layouts. see i have severe adult ADD and building models helps me concentrate, and since i have no internet at home i all the sudden have free time to build. The only time i get online is when i get to go with my wife when she works at the motel she has had problems with customers on the graveyard shift and i sit up there with her and the internet is free to use. so play catch-up and try to upload my youtube vids while i am up there. | |

| I'll try to post a vid on youtube this week on how i build them. right now we are looking for me another car. ( i am having issues getting tags for the Pontiac i have stopped driving it since the former owners tags expired in Dec of 2010) and also trying to fiance my wife a reasonably new car since our tax refund has came in, So we can send the Winstar back to her dad. Sorry for getting off subject its just i am really multitasking while i got internet. | |

| Where do you get the sheet styrene from? Im curious on attempting something like that .
1/24 scale is cool- i have plenty of spare model parts to use - also have alot of spare RC car parts n tires around- make a bigger scale tractor.
Im a big fan of flea markets and thrift stores - if you search enough you can find alot of cool stuff - i just bot 3 RC vehicles - ones a 9.6volt jeep - and ones a boat for $7 - jeep works - ill need to cannabalize a 6 volt vehicle for the boat to work - never had a RC boat before- use it on the pond at the park near the house. | |
