Chassis shots please sir. I'm surprised no one else asked for the rude bits.

Yup. Ta. :) Still playing with ideas. Keep looking longingly at MGTC & Jag SS100 kits as well. Too many ideas and not enough time.

Matchbox kits. Finding them very tempting due to recent builds shown here. I have a big stack of 1/32 static kits stored up with the intention of conversion. Trying to decide on the best place to start.

You still lost me,any matchbox around here, is a 164 dinky car only.

Matchbox brand plastic static kit in 1/32 scale. Matchbox actually owned what became SCX at one stage. They are into a bit of everything toy-wise.

Nice build! Gunze Sanyo makes excellent kits, but they're not cheap either. Bodies have no flash or mold lines and are paintable right out of the box.

Thanks for the chassis picture...nice conversion using the pod! I forgot the chassis is rolling chassis and the model came with metal axles. This is the kind of kit I would have liked as a kid because you can actually roll the model around.

Your Nomad is sure carrying a full load...:)

Nice build. I've always been a big fan of the Nomad. The 1:1 car is like my white whale ever since I passed up on one when I was a teenager - $1600 and in beautiful condition - Ugh!! How I wish I had that car now. You've inspired me to build the two Arii RX-7s I've got stashed away.
