I don't even want to know how much money you have invested in those.
Very nice collection.

How do you custom make those? If I had your collection, I would be playing with them all the time haha!

e30 evo · #7 (**permalink**) 10-31-2003, 02:09 PM

to custom make models you take bits off other models, chop suspension bits etc...

Nice collection......makes mine look so simple...oh I only have one(the red bull GTR M3) and the one I drive to work Estoril Blue M3

Very nice collection though....I too would spend a lot of time cleaning them and dreaming of driving each model......

Warsteiner and Tic Tac are in the mail

How do I make custom models. Well this 4 door M3 had 3 donor 1/18 BMW cars.

The convertible. Well it was a bit hard, I made mold of fenders out of M3 GTR and glue it on regular E36M3 Vert.Also second exhaust muffler was taken from a donor car for the first project (the silver 4 door)

There are 2 more custom cars are comming soon.

I have over 650 models of all diff types, but I did not take pics b4 I moved. They are in boxes for now. They are mostly all 1/18 and few 1/64 and a Ferrari Schummi "rain crash damaged" F2000 #1 of 250.

Hell no. I had a spare "study room" at our old home. I had book shelves and installed another shelf between the shelves (glass), effectively doubling the capacity. I do wish I would have taken pics, but my friends can testify. Lots of $$ my dad and I spent on them. Now the cars are all in Italy in boxes. Once our second home is being restored in Italy, I will have the room to reassemble them the way they were.
