This is great, all of you have top ideas. synchochc: the idea of a Lancia Stratos is ace. aceprc: Sierra Saphire Cosworth (being a Ford fan myself we need someone to make one) As for the Land rover( I think kamtecmodels on ebay makes them now.) stulec52: AC Cobra (Kyosho made them in The Nostalgic Series) The Zakspeed can by found on the bay (it's not the best detailed shell, but it's still good all the same. I know as I had one: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...27160&sid=2731). Now alot of people are into the Mk1 and Mk2 Esrot (sorry (Escort, me bad:) you are all good people. Here's my Mardave 1/8 nitro: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...=23941&sid=2731. volksrod68: Karmann Ghia..... Now I would love a kit or a real one of these or a Mk 1 Porsche would do... I don't have much to offer other than a big smile in return. The offer is open:) lunchbox, zeemax and jimbo you all hit on the spot with the hardly seen Metro in two of its forms, both would be good kits. And lunchbox by now I would guess you have seen the RS500 made by Kyosho: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...d=20816&id=2731. As for the Series 1 yourself and sonic say, big needed in the collection, and it would be nice to be able to make a copy of my series 2. Jimbo and flyby do you both mean the super 7? Because ABC made a very good kit. I will post the pics of the chassis at some point of my one. When you see it you will want one: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...=26817&sid=2731.
I think Tamiya would do well getting ideas from modelers like ourselves. Maybe it would be a good idea to open up this discussion to more of t.c's membership. I myself don't normally look at the forums and spend most of my time looking on the home page or through members collections, movies, trades and favs. Is there a way we could get some voting going on, to find out what we all want out of our cars. Then when we have got our top cars we put them forward to Tamiya, just to see what they think. If they are not interested then maybe we could get together and put some money in to get what we want made. It's just a idea. There are many cars that I would like that I have not seen made to fit R/C cars, and I think we all know of some.
