All you need to do now is work on a complete set of Roadsters

Nice collection

I'm working on the Roadster right now! Have to make a custom back piece and cut off the roof.

Then the SRT's, wing and front spoiler.


Figured this was a good starting point.

That's a nice start! Now all you need are the roadsters and the SRT's. Of course, getting in and driving them might be a little hard.

Starting with SRT6's would have been a shorter list to start with!!

Nice line up though.

FP, There all the 1:18 models. I had to disassemble a few to repaint them to other colors. I worked from the silver ones as they gave me the best base color for the repainting.

It was a fun project for the heck of it.

If you actually took the time to look, You might find that everyone that posted something about no roadsters or SRT was making a joke, hence the "razz" smilie at the end. Furthermore, I don't see one post that didn't include something to the effect of "nice collection".

Not so sharp on the internet huh?

Pay a little more attention and don't be a tool. Oops......pointing out the obvious again.....guilty as charged.

I think it’s a great set - well done . I have a grey one with a red interior - that’s my very own “Mini Marlene” (even though the steering wheel is on the wrong side).

I have one in black. One doesn't really need all of the secondary colors for a complete set.

Yes, the Yellow color was only Roadsters. I thought about painting a coupe in yellow just to see how it would look.

Hairydalek, correct me if I'm wrong, but the Crystal Slate was only a European available color or is it one of the US colors with a different name? I cannot find the color from any of the paint suppliers here in the US. Do you know if your color is available in any type of spray touch-up can ? I would like to add one to the "collection". I'll even paint one for you and ship it back, if your interested.
