F40 LMGTC

I've made a LM and also a GTE. Heres my website:

Those are all very good. I don't know if I would want the GTE or the LM. The F50 GT is also awesome. I want all of those but don't think i have the skill to recreate any of them. How did you do them and what were the starting models.

 

Do you sell them?

 

Thanks for the kind words..

The base models are pretty much whatever there is available in the market.. so they could be Hotwheels, AutoArt, Maisto....etc. I started customizing models 2 years ago.. i had nothing back then... hardly a few tools.. and now i almost have a mini workshop in my studio! I just spend alot of time researching for new ideas and experimenting new things

 

Yes, but they will cost more than a regular diecast with the labor and materials

 

Thats an excellent collection! Did u create all of those? or were some off the shelf?

I assume they are all 1/18 scale, as you say you're using base models such as Maitso & HotWheels. I'd be interested in knowing where you got all of the parts to create those, especially the 360GT. I'm in the process of converting a 1/18 HotWheels 360 Modena into a 360GT, but am having trouble finding all the parts.

Yes, they are all customized models. As for parts, most of them are scratch built, but I also take different parts such as wheels & tires from other spare cars..

 

Great work Kev..!

 

Even still, how much would the MC12 ALMS be? Or the F40 Lm, F430GTC??? All of them are nothing short of spectacular. I'd pay for them no doubt. I'd seriously be interested in how much one of those owuld cost me if I was to supply the base models.

 

Here are some pics of a F40 LM. Somebody modded a stock F40 1/18 towards the LM version. I found it on ebay and it was fairly good, but still lacked some details. So I went ahead and bought one of those mod kits (just search ebay for it) and that gave it the necessary details like e.g. the wheels and the front hood (amongst many other things).

I also have a F40 GTE, which I found in a shop in Modena. It is even signed by the driver who raced it in the Italian series. However the model is not very accurate and basically a stock F40 with stickers.

Here is a picture of the F40 GT, which as I said is not really a good model, but rather a stock F40 with stickers. Below the pic of the driver who signed the model and the real car.

And below that a picture of a F40 I modded after the one and only real F40 Spider.

Thanks.

It would cost quite a bit. The reason for that is because there are not resin parts and all the extra parts are either scratch built or parts from other cars. Therefore, it takes me alot of time to make them and fit them. If you supply the base model, I would say it would cost you nothing less than $200US depending on which model you want me to build. Some requires more work some requires less.. hope this helps.
