Lol..thanks 2Beers! I meant no update on the Sandman...gonna start a new thread on these as they will be primarily RWD

I will get around to doing the tailgate handle etc...maybe in a few days...


Edit - new thread for the RWDs is here.. http://www.scale4x4rc.org/forums/sho...83#post1066983

Hey mate, I definitely will not be selling the parts. A body? possibly... but it won’t be soon as I set my self a task of building the variations in body styles in the HQ and HX series for my own personal collection....once I have those completed, I will probably consider building for others!

Finally figured out how to fix the pics …. not sure what went wrong, but what I heard was that Flickr was moving their storage systems... all the links that I corrected after the Photobucket fiasco were broken again... however the embed code is the same and all I have to do is click on the link to open the pic in flickr then copy and paste the code back in …..for each pic in each post

well...that's what you get for free I guess...lol ! so hopefully I can get these pics back up during the next few days...as time permits

all I can say is O!M!G!!!!!


What a beauty this has turned out to be!

Congrats on the Top Builds, too! You deserve it!

Edit - also been swapping out the photophucket pics for Flickr ones from where they started...think I’m up to page 22 or thereabouts...

How are this going mate??

Forums seems really slow this days.
Are nobody building these days?

[Trini2DBone]

Hey there mate!
Haven’t really done anything more to the Sandman, although there are something’s left to do..like the dashboard gauges and emblems and the front turn signals etc... started building 2 more panel van bodies as well as 2 Monaros. Got a sample chassis that I want to mold and replicate for the bodies as they will all be RWD cars. Also started to put together a couple of station wagons too...lol.

Yeah been quiet on the forums ... also I haven’t been doing anything much on Facebook..... but winter will soon be here and that’s when I do most of my building...

Hey Preston! Nice to hear from you. I would really like to see what you do for chassis with the 2WD ones! I don't like facebook, I much prefer the forums with information not ending lost in a seemingly unorganized way. Hopefully I too get more hobby time soon with the winter!
