So, I was supposed to repaint a customers car, but I found that the passanger side rear is quite a bit lower than the drivers side. I'd say the tin worm already found it's way into the suspension points. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Also, the 914 looks really out of place in my collection (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Attached image(s) |

I suppose it can be repaired, but while I'm in there...

A 3.6 six would be more entertaining than the 2.0 four...

QUOTE(0396 @ Feb 6 2004, 06:21 PM) By the way, how do you go about attaching a pic to one's response? Click on "Reply" and go to the reply page. Look at the bottom of the page. There is a "File Attachment" line and a browse box. Click on browse, find and attach your photo file. It works! Mike BTW, my 914's finally arrived last week. The blue one is gonna get stripped and given a coat of Malaga red. |

QUOTE Wow, what company makes that red 964? I've been looking for one in a 1/18 This one is by Anson. I found it on ebay for less than $10. It's pretty poor quality though. QUOTE BTW, my 914's finally arrived last week. The blue one is gonna get stripped and given a coat of Malaga red. This one will be sprayed House of Kolor Deep Black. Stripping the car should be interesting. |

Post instructions on stripping the model. I've got two blue models but it would be nice to paint it Olympic Blue. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Also had them match the white of my Nissan pickup. Good service, even if they were a little pricey. I recommend them. Mike |

DOh. Poor quality. I really like the quality of UT models. They are much better than the Maisto's but not as good (and expensive) as the AutoArts.
