Wheels for a 1:24 Mini conversion

[Guest]

Does anyone have any ideas where I can source a set of wheels to convert a Tamiya 1:24 Mini Cooper 1275S Mk.1 into a Mk.1 850 Mini?

Are these the one's you are after ??

I converted the Tamiya Mini into a Austion 850, I have the masters, but need to get a few sets cast up for myself,

Have a look at my website, where I posted photo's of the build

Yes! These are exactly the ones. Now going to your website.

Great website, can nearly find everything I need on it. I normally do military stuff but this is a gift for my brothers 60th birthday, it was his first car so I want it to look right. Any chance of casting a set for me? Many thanks, Dasha

I will, but I need to order in some more RTV as the molds are shot, but this time I'm going to be casting them up in Resin, I am going to cast the wheel and hubcap together, which will be easy to paint then do the hubcap in BMF, and I will cast the tyre separately, these are the correct crossply tyres that the old Mini's had as standard.

Brill! keep me posted

Ordered the RTV today, so I'm hoping to get a new mold made soon,

[Guest]

I will be making the new moulds next week, hopefully I will have a set of the wheels & tyres for you soon,

Well I finally got round to getting the molds done for this, I've been busy building and writing models for a Military Model magazine, plus I still have three articles to finish for another magazine, but anyway the molds look good, so hopefully I will be doing the resin casting of the wheels & tyres very soon.

Here's the molds :-
