No model cars, but I do build R/C cars :yes: Why look at them when you can drive them? ;)

I have 1/18th scale cars.. I use to build model cars when I was little all the time. Ive been thinking about putting one together again though. :yes:

Anyone know about Tech Decks? They are little skateboards. Well, that same company made these little Civics and I think an Acura too that had all these little parts and you could modify them. One of my friends had one like a year back and whenever I am in the mall or whatever, I try to find them and I can't. Boo.

Are these really hard to do? I am buying the Supra to go along with my Matchbox Supra.

yeah there tough...painting is tough....parts are small........

you will need tweezers,glue,lots of paint colors....find out a color you want and pick atleast 5 other colors to go with it....get flat black spray paint from walmart for $100 a can and primer .......sand paper and emery boards (finger nail files)


when your buying paint get the small bottles for the small parts like the engine...get thinner and nice brushes...those model brushes are too coarse.....they arent that hard to do you just need plenty of patience
