58017 B2B Racing Sidecar 11 years 2 months ago #18492

Hello modelers
I want to restore my old B2B Racing Sidecar from 1979, electronics will also be up to date.
Question: where can I get the old original "Rodolphe Deville" sticker?
Or does anyone have the label as a pdf file.
Then I could leave the label reprint.

Thanks in advance
Richard

Hi Richard,
The B2B decals are hard to find, so you better keep an eye out on ebay.com and ebay.co.uk.
A Wanted ad here on TamiyaBase.com might also help. ;)

Hello "The H.P Freak"

I will do as soon as possible photos of the actual state of the B2B Sidecar. :cry:
I have not yet begun to be restored, it is the same state as before about 33 years ago. :ohmy:
Photos I will show you in the forum.

@ Larbut
And I've found a complete Pic of B2B decals pdf file, let's see if I can make the print on transparent adhesive film.
Do I have just the right scale print. ;)

regards
Richard

As promised a few pics of sidecars in the current condition prior to restoration
























The right hand of the driver is present, not only glued. :huh:
The right foot of the driver is missing, :( unfortunately, I will rebuild from Depron, or perhaps take a unused male doll (Big Jim). :laugh:

I will document the restoration with photos.
Regards
Richard

Looks sound & fairly complete, looking forward to seeing what you do with it :)

I like the helmet visors :y: but those crazy eyes give me the willies :ohmy:

Im as old as this model, but im thinking this will scrub up better. Im fascinated at its shear simplicity, the way the battery is offset to compensate for it having 3 wheels and the minimal amount of plastic on this is cool. :woohoo:

Thats a nice model !

It's the first time that i see one of those dissasembled and it looks pretty simple. I think that's what it makes that sidecar intresting.

Keep us posted on the resto progress

Hello modelers
who has information on the original vehicle which the B2B Racing Sidecar was modeled?
Have to go ..... nothing found :(
Especially the color and sponsors stickers on the original would be interested.
