Those atmo 3sge are a good little jigger... That model silly car is not bad either, shame they're so popular with hair dressers

This is going to be a sweet build.

I might have to take up hair dressing :shock:

I was quite shocked on how hard the blue/grey celica went. pulled like a school boy, Im looking on toymods for any tassie boys who will let me take there turbo mr2 for a spin, to get a feel for them!

oh, the wreak is an auto, are the boxes the same size down anyone know? can I still use it as a jig or is it different?

Thanks, josh
