Re: Tecnomodel New Ferrari 365 GTC/4

Look closely at the B pillar detail on the Ferrari model. For a Ferrari, it's thick, and the fixed portion is black. See the vertical grooves in the pillar? How many mid-Seventies domestics featured this treatment? The rear quarter windows of both cars are similar in shape, slope, and length. I didn...

Chevy copied the B pillar and rear quarter window treatment from this Ferrari for its 1975 Monza.

Re: Matrix Scale Models Bugatti T101C Exner-Ghia #101506 196

I think I understand now, and thank you for your explanation. The only reason I suggested the discussion move to the forum was to share the above Matrix pics with others. You thought it was about you, and took offense. My reference to your recitation of your credentials as 'your resume' was an attem...

Re: Matrix Scale Models Bugatti T101C Exner-Ghia #101506 196

Reply to Flathead from this in the News section. I appreciate your answer about producing models, but for me.....I more than understand the model car industry. I have been involved with it full time, since the early 1980s as a manufacturer, dealer, broker, builder, and consultant. Models in numerou...

I missed that one. It doesn't answer the question of whether the Matrix name replaces Cult, or is in addition to Cult with their line of 1/18 models. :?

Re: Matrix Scale Models Bugatti T101C Exner-Ghia #101506 196

Here is another pending 1/18 release from Matrix. While not a great enthusiast of early-1950s Ferrari design, this one is particularly striking in this color combo: 1953 Ferrari 212 Inter Coupe Vignale black / metallic green http://i63.tinypic.com/2cwlwe0.jpg http://i63.tinypic.com/flyctv.jpg http:/...

Re: LS Collectibles Toyota Supra MKIV 1993 Production

The Markii is the one I want! :drool: And its Celica little brother! But, in diecast, so those glorious DOHC 6s and 4s can be seen and appreciated.

Re: Auto World 1967 Cadillac Eldorado

The whitewalls are correct on this one, and the additional colors (white and red) are appreciated. Please produce this in 1:18. :drool:

If all the trim pieces are chromed and not painted, it will be a step up from some other resin 1/18s

Re: Kyosho | OUSIA Range Rover Evoque HSE Dynamic Lux

Kyosho | OUSIA Range Rover Evoque HSE Dynamic Lux Kyosho under the OUSIA name plate presents the 1:18 Range Rover Evoque HSE Dynamic Lux. A somewhat far fetched SUV for those more concerned with the subtitles of class and low key. Two colours will be offered, Santorini Black and Firenze Red. The OU...

Re: Cult Scale Models Massive January Announcements

The Jag XK-150 looks sensational. :D The XKE S2 would be better done in diecast, showing the engine. AutoArt or maybe Paragon.
