Ready to help You with spareparts !

It's amazing how many Western European makes you have in your collection! Did you buy them via the internet or on trips to other countries?

hello!

I have had a lot of parts, but sorted them out, so for now it's not that many anymore. But feel free to ask, maybe I can help you in the future.

The parts you ask now.... Sorry, not here....

Via internet ,from other countries(when travelling)  and from secondhand shops .

vs

Here is one heat of parts that have no home yet . They all want to become a car !

hey!

This body has the same as my V-series Siku, it looks like there is some kind of a first layer of silver... a sort of primer... I had to use a grinder to get it off.....

Here it is !
