My second hobby that helped with my first hobby Rc,s

[JESSE G]

I used to collect 1/18 scale cars I have over 100 now anyway I love to take them apart and customize them everything from altered suspension to making a stock car in to a prostreet beast. I have also done a couple custom airbrush paint jobs on them. 2 years ago I got hurt really bad in a car accident and this helped me keep my mind of all the B.S and being home all of the time. I began to sell them On ebay and was doing pretty good This is where I made most of my money to buy my rc trucks. I'm thinking of getting back into Customizing again so I can get me another rc I'm getting the itch again lol. I was just curious what you guys think of mu customs. Here is a website I made when I first started building them Unfortunaly none of these are the ones I painted the chrome looking ones I stripped the paint all off the wet sanded them untill my fingers where about to fall of them polished them for hours on end and that was the end result. Many of the muscle machies I had lowered down to the weed and made custom rims for them by taking two diffrent kind of rims and bonding them together. Please be patient with the site it is a free website host and its kind of slow let me know what you think thanks.

hey are those just modle cars u can buy at a hobby shop? Thats really cool man you have some talent.

 

[JESSE G]

They are all diecast and you can buy them at a hobby shop but they are very exspensive there. I used to buy them from trusty Walmart lol a majority of them I would buy on ebay exspecialy the ones that I used just for there parts. Thank you for the compliment I think I'm going to start working on them soon I need to get some supplys though, mostly just atachements for my Dremel I use that thing for just about everything. Works awesome to cut plastic and metal exspecail when I fabricate custom aluminum interiors/wing and firewalls.

I thing the next one I'm going to build is going to be a prostreet 70 Chevelle with some big fat meats and a huge 6-71 blower sticking out the hood mabe all aluminum interior?

Most of these are 1/18 metal cars they come prebuilt they do make its for them but not to many. They are put together with screws and glue. I know which ones your talking about the platic ones 1/25 scale that you put together they usally run around 15 bucks I started customizing those when I was around 10 or so and thats what got me into taking apart the diecast and building them the way I like them. The 1/18 scale diecast at the hobby store are usally around 30 to 60 bucks!!! Walmart is like 12 to 25. I've gotten the on ebay as low as 3 dollars lol Ebay is my friend.
