    If you have a Big Lots store in the area I sugguest that you check them out. I've found a lot of 1/18 Hotwheels Ferraris there including the 333 SP for only $12.99.

    You can enter your zipcode on their webpage to see if you have a store in your area. www.biglots.com

    I am trying to remember the name of a model company. I think it is called Exotic Car Model Company but can't seem to find any info. I used to get their catalogs. Am I wrong on the name?

    EXOTICAR is the name and they don't have the 333 anymore. I don't quite understand why you don't just get the one from ebay. Easier, faster and cheaper than mail order. But each to his own.

    Keep the spare: Those wheels are priceless for modifications. That's what I used on my F50 GT.

    I am looking for a model of the Olive Garden 333SP which ran under Doyle-Risi Racing in 1998 I believe. The upper half of the car was painted green. Any ideas?

    Yes, buy a red one and paint the other part green and try to find the proper decals. Would be a fun project.

    Repainting is easy once you disassemble the model. Check with FChat user modelbuilder (Ed from Island Collectibles). He might have some decals. Otherwise you can make them yourself by taking them from pictures and printing them out with a color printer on your PC.

    Mule, how much do you want for the spare? What color? Have a picture?

    I already have a solid red 333 but Im looking for another one. Id love the Olive Garden one as well.

    Patrick you got the last one. Jordan, PM me, but I want to make sure Pauli has his on the way, first. Maybe you can find one of those Jet-X planes to trade. I don't want to make this Ebay.
