Hello 4 years 2 months ago #58139

Hi everyone, just thought I’d drop in and see what’s going on. I’m a vintage fan through and through and been collecting and restoring for quite a while. Of course I was lucky enough as a kid to own some really nice Tamiya kits in the early eighties and slowly growing out of it by about 92 when I discovered real cars and girls. Stupidity took over and I sold a lot of my mint r/c cars in about 2004 to buy a motorbike, something I regret to this day. Since then I’ve gone on to buy back most of them in nib form and built up quite a collection. This picture is from about 89/90.

Cheers. My collection has got out of hand tbh, I can’t stop buying old kits , spares, restoration projects, I look at as a kind of therapy to keep me sane 😂.

Cheers. I restored it about six or seven years ago from a nice complete Scorcher base. Although at the time I used a rere mech box as part of the resto I’ve Recently found and fitted a nice original. I’ve restored quite a few since
Fox
Sand rover
Holiday buggy
MK1 hotshot
My old Falcon
My old lunchbox
My old clodbuster
My old Toyota monster racer.
And finally my old Astute which I’m in the middle of returning it back to stock from madcap suspension etc.
