July-Oct 2016 GB: The Same Car- Chat Thread.

[Guest]

The idea is simple....... build our own version of the same car.


Now we need the takers and decide the car.


Please, use this thread to join in (if you wish) and propouse a vehicle as well.....


We can work in couples, for example....

I was sure there was a few more posts in this thread...


I might have did a boo boo. I am still getting to grips with the new administration tools and I might just have deleted the wrong duplicate thread...Sorry.

I'm going to put forward the idea of a 2cv having done a quick search on eBay it would seem that Tamiya, Revel and Helier have good offerings.

Ditto that with the VW beetle and the good old mini. They can also be found easy and are as cheep as chips.

IHC made a bug with opening doors and a Baja option. Oops I've got one.

[Guest]

Any takers o suggestions here?!?!?!?  

[Paul Davies]

[peterairfix]

I still would suggest the good old mini mind you because that's the only car in my stash

[papa 695]

Well I've still got a VW Beatle and a E type Jag.


have we any idea which car is the chosen subject?

[Guest]

Hi all, I am new on the forum, just wanted to know if this GB is actually going ahead as there are no posts on the GB? do we post our builds in the WIP section or over here?


I have a Tamiya Morris Mini Cooper 1/24 (rally version) and will build the civi version Mini Cooper MkIV if thats ok?

[PaulTRose]

some how i think this GB is a dead duck......never did decide on a theme

[Ian M]

Well I am going to pull rank here and say this.


the subject of the same car build will be the great original Mini. 


Also as the start has gone two months over, we can let it run on through to Christmas.


I hope that this is to most people's liking.


Bob. For the SIG or GB Builds you open a build thread in the relevant sig/gb section. Include your name in the title and post a box top and sprue shots in the opening post.
