the 1:24 s13 convertible

[madcowvert]

my friend here in miami made it looks so sweet...

[Ihiryu]

wow, i want one

[AZhitman]

Dude! Is that a model kit? I WANT!!!!

[NaXu]

Wow Did he manage to find an original 1:24 model of the convertible? The box under the car looks similar to the one I have (S13 Silvia) on my desk waiting for some extra time and inspiration; the same kind of a project, except the idea is to combine 180SX front and Silvia so that it will look like 240SX Vert

[Eikon]

Dude.. you gotta figure out how to get more of those.

I want one!!!

[DeXteR]

me likey!

i want one, but 240sx not silvia.

need more details.

[ishkabibble]

Cool. Interesting that it's LHD.

[madcowvert]

it was made from the s13 model kit. the one that is under the car.. the boot he said he got it from and old rx7 convertible that he haid he said they no longer make..

I have no idea how he got it LHD but i asked him so i should get and answer monday....

it is one sweet car

[BOOMSHAKALAKA]

That is freaking awesome...I want one!

[madcowvert]

Madcow.... let me know where he got that model... that is the shnit.... diggin the Silvia front end...

The Silvia is discontinued as well...

[Eikon]

I snagged the Silvia model off Ebay this afternoon.

Was $27 shipped from Aussieland..

Apparently he cut the roof himself and then used the boot from a RX-7 model... not sure if I'll do that or not...???

[madcowvert]

youu see the silvias every now and then on ebay but the rx7 that he got the boot off of is like trying to find a real convertible boot..

like i have said before he made this and you can not buy one...

i thought it was so cool just had to share it with you guys!!!

[NaXu]

it was made from the s13 model kit. the one that is under the car..

I have no idea how he got it LHD

Ok, just like I thought. And there are two optional dashboards on the package, LHD and RHD so that's how.

[Loki]

Wow, that's REALLY nice. If it was red and had a Chuki front I'd be on it like rice in a high school parking lot. Sadly, I don't really have the resources to find a 1:24 non-"Import-Ricer" model of a 240, let alone mod it as well as that one. I'll just settle on my 1/87th 180sx :p

[donmeca2020]

very neat looking.

[redtop91]

That looks like the Vader Vert.

[madcowvert]

that is sick....

[wirelessalpha]

Here ya go:

[Juanit0]

Nice..I want one...

[Eikon]

I just want to know how they managed to install that RB26dett and to keep the rear turbo without it hitting the driveshaft?

That shift light has got to go!!!

LOL.. that rocks.. You know it's a cool model when you can isolate things like the above to mention...

I love this model thing... I'll spend my summer modding my real 'vert.

I'll spend my winters modding my model S13. The latter is much less expensive!!!

[Miyabita_Y33]

here is an old pic. (Not finished) Disregard the stuff in the background. lol

I too have a RB26 going in!!!
