Here are, sorry for the delay, a couple of pictures of the RE-EL "Alfa Romeo CAN-AM" with its box: http://im4.freeforumzone.it/up/41/55/1219175370.jpg http://im4.freeforumzone.it/up/41/54/3375539156.jpg The car has thus also a removable rear wing. RE-EL stands for Reggian Elettronica, as w...
Yes Fer, that one has been for sale for several weeks/months now. Is it, er, a bit overpriced? Fact is that I won mine for a fraction of that. However, at 30-35 € I have never seen the Alfa. Which doesn't mean that none has ever been sold for so little. But I seem to remember that the last time I ha...
OK Hans, but the bumper car is in another league. It is not supposed to be the miniature of any real car. I say "ugly" because beyond the trilobe front end, nothing on the toy could remind any real Alfa. And while on one hand I fully appreciate the history and appeal of this toy; I also re...
At the beginning of this year, I filled another long lasting gap in my collection. A discussion with Fer last Fall sort of reminded me that I had been looking for it since long, and somehow had given up. Fer told me that he luckily had found a Solido cabrio 6C2500 of the late 40s early 50s. I was lu...
The Conquest Models Alfa 2000 Automatic has already been shown a couple of times on previous pages, but I thought it nice to show the "ultimate" detail of that model: the correct gear lever! http://im3.freeforumzone.it/up/37/6/888005934.jpg http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/attachments/sedan...
For today, a recent acquisition: the rare and nice Colibri 8C2900A. http://im3.freeforumzone.it/up/35/17/2345458103.jpg http://im3.freeforumzone.it/up/35/34/1658556444.jpg Rampini rates it "R3" (for what it's worth...) but indeed it's a rare find, and mine has number 10 engraved under it, ...
Voor degenen die wel van extreme scratchbuild handbouw houden hier een link naar een heer "Jacques" die werkelijk verbluffende 1:43 modellen maakt vanuit het niks met een ongelooflijk nivo van detail. Hij schijnt ze in opdracht van klanten te maken. Ik geloof dat ik niet wil weten wat zo ...
Thanks Hans. Really, I'm not sure about improving it. I would have touched up some small points, but since there's an overall satin varnish finish, I'm afraid of causing some damage to the overall aspect, so I would rather refrain. Also the lack of cables to the trolleys allows to take them off for ...
Naar aanleiding van het bussendraadje en de daar in gesignaleerde 'draadbus': http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v676/dinkyboy61/SCARB%20forum%20pix%205/50JorgenEdgar140AFS4-1.jpg Deze 1:50 Alfa Romeo 140 AFS/4 uit Stockholm is gebouwd door de Zweed Jörgen Edgar. Tien van deze bussen reden van 1950 ...
While I cannot figure out how anybody can believe a single word of Marchionne after the incredible number of 180-turns over the years - i.e. for me that statement about bashing the 159 and aying that Alfa needs its own engines has as much a value as the tales where the 159 was a misunderstood car an...
It has already been dealt with Bosica over the years. I happened to buy an assembled one in last december, only to find out that the guy who had assembled it self evidently lacked some skills to be up to the demanding task. http://im3.freeforumzone.it/up/31/80/1393860120.jpg So, without having decid...
De reeds lang geplande Alfa F1 modellen van Spark betreffende de Alfa 179 komen er dan nu eindelijk toch. Nummer 22 Giacomoli ;-) en nummer 23 Brambilla. Leuke addities naar mijn mening. http://i45.tinypic.com/2dtrifk.jpg http://i45.tinypic.com/33p36op.jpg Actually, Giacomelli always raced with #23...
