Aston Martin ?

Post by Vass »

I would like to built a special 1/4 , 1/5 car and Im looking for a body.

I didnt find something exept Ford GT 40 , Viper and some Ferrari .

I ask for the SUPER CAR.


....... and the idea is ....an Aston Martin.

I love these cars and I want one .Do you know if there is body for sale ?

Maybe is a good idea to start from an 1/18 Vanquish model ( ...from my son's toys ) and make
a new 1/4, as a mold for the new body.

I think you're out of luck finding an 'off the shelf' 1/4 scale AM. It's going to be a do it yourself project.

Thanks eightman.

Very nice your dbs9.
I dont use cnc ( old fasion machinery ) so I'll try with ''my way'' to built an AM.

Maybe 2 or 3 piece for a lexan body or one from fiberglass.I dont know yet.
I'll start working on it next days and I'll upload the ''work''.
