The "Postman Brought Me" Thread

Have you seen @mtbkym01’s Street WRX STi? Only decal (from memory) on that and looks the business 👍🏻

I have and it is very smart! I don't think I have a box-art car but the box art on this and the Toyota Le Mans car really appeal to me. Unfortunately, I think both are beyond my ability level! Blista's thread on this model was great

I'm thinking over getting a bodyset and putting in the loft until I have got some practice in - probably in 10 years given the number of projects I have stacking up!

The "accidental Avante" has arrived.

I sold my boxed 88 avante a week or so ago, kinda regretted it once it went so started browsing again and saw this being auctioned.

It was still pretty low (for an Avante) so I stuck in a bid expecting to be outbid but wasn't... 

Anyway, its here came rtr with a cpr p100 which is now for sale, wheels are off for a refurb in the garage, whole chassis will be stripped, I was gonna get a new body as it didn't look great in the pics but now it's arrived I think it's really nice. Screenshot_20210127_112944.thumb.jpg.b3967483075248fdd29868531c45cac5.jpg

@Wez-liThat looks expletive stunning! Never seen that colour before, brilliant! If there ever was a better looking car than the Avante it would've been illegal, surely.

I wanted to spray my Top-Force in Copper but ended up Red/Black. Looking at this Buggy (Avante)i regret it :)

edit: think its ps-14:

My TTC transmission kit has FINALLY arrived for my King Cab!!!!!! :wub::P:DB)

Now, we could all see this happening - but it's just sooooo purty I'm thinking it should really go in the Monster Racer :P

 

Where did you find a TTC mate?

This big box turned up today. I guess it’s something Mrs Ministrone has bought for the house. 😜

Nothing too big, but a Super Stock BZ motor to add to my mini "collection." I now have the BZ, RZ, TZ, Dirt Tuned, and Sport Tuned. :D

Lately I have been seeing a lot of F1 cars on this site and never given them much thought in the past but I must say I'm giving it some thought and might just dip my toe. What would be a good place to start and how much cash would it take to get something good?

I'm same, never really had much interest but I am now.

This was pretty cheap but it needs work, have a look on the f1 thread, plenty of experts in there :)

 the joke is that the box art design makes it confusing to the buyer if they are buying a RC kit or a afro guy .
