General For those interested is plastic scale models

I've got the one on the thread below made by Tamiya. I started it about 3 years ago but it got delayed as I couldn't find any paint that was leaking oil colour or any decent way of representing rust on the wheel arches or sills!

You can still get them. I just had a look online, I paid about £30-40 for mine 3 years ago, there is one on Amazon selling for nearly £200.00 now. Perhaps I should have kept it in the box!!!

A year or so ago (well, maybe a bit longer!) I found 1 of the Tamiya "Abarth 695" kits up for grabs on e-bay--the box was slightly marked but the kit was untouched and complete---guess what my birthday present from the family was that time!

Here is mine build back in 1999, I have added a roll gauge also. This model was a subject of a Greek scale model magazine of the time. Finally after about 18 years later I got my 1/1 scale

Almost bought one last week. Will probably regret not doing so
 
Unfortunately i have talk to the moderator for this matter NOT to lock the edit feature so we can edit our old posts for a matter of reasons like this one or for example for replacing pictures that stupid Photobucket had removed but he is not agree with me. Anyway the missing link has the announcement of the above mentioned kit so nothing more interesting than my latest update.

An update about italeri's 1/12 scale fiat 500. They are about to release a 695 Abarth version. It starts getting interesting now i think.:D

There is one available, now that you mention it I have to buy it.
 
This one is not a plastic model but die cast. I found it on eBay last week and just had to have it :D Very pleased with the accuracy of the shape as well. (y) Mondo Models 1/24th.
