@ goodfellaz, i put that mono shock from you on this, so far i'm liking it, thanks again.

soon to come, an f150, and some others.

thanks for the comments, i have some more bodies that i have aquired lately but they will wait.
i got my airbrush today. she's a beauty
bottom feed, dual action, internal mix. come with i thought 3 tips but i am only seeing 2. shes a beauty though, pics below.
while i am waiting for the wife to get home so i can go play with the airbrush i decided to dust off the collection and shoot some pics with the ones i have picked up since the last group shot. let's just say i didn't think i was going to have enough counter space. but they all fit in there. i may have 1 more bumblebee body somewhere but i'm not digging around tonight. some people call it an obsession i call it an enjoyable hobby. well enough talk here's some pics.

well i have a bunch of parts and bodies on their way and they are trickling in. here's my prizes from the january cotm. se 180 high torque motor, and a set of subaru rims. seeings as i have done many different types of conversions on the evo chassis, and the truck chassis i think i am going to have one on a gen 1 chassis. so once i complete a few of the current projects i am going to start on that beast.
http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll28/zippo855/100_1314.jpg



well a couple more things showed up today. decided to try rsu and got a couple bodys, picked up a rsx of spr, and got some more on the way. been finding good deals lately so i thought i would add them to the collection.

thanks man, i like em.

well here's the gen 1 cars. 8 working 1 strict roller, and 1 needs minor work, just havent done it. o yeah and under the subaru is the chassis that the 180 motor is going in.. started work on it.

http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll28/zippo855/100_1444.jpg

got the evo cars out. and the custom chassis evo's
12 normal chassis
8 modified including the one below this pic, that i forgot i had
http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll28/zippo855/100_1447.jpg
custom x.i. roll cage :)
http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll28/zippo855/100_1448.jpg
forgot about this truck chassis, i need to throw some axle stubs back in it and it will be goot to go. so 1 more truck
http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll28/zippo855/100_1449.jpg

and heres the bodies with no chassis. 36 bodies
http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll28/zippo855/100_1450.jpg

so grand total
10 gen 1 cars
13 evo trucks
12 normal evo cars
8 modified evo cars
and there is one chassis on its way to goodfellaz to get fitted for a van :).
i might throw some parts together to get some more chassis. so for the time being 43 complete cars
and 36 bodies. i sold some cars and bodies off over last weekend. so the toal now is 79 bodies and 43 chassis. for now anyway :)



alright, im going to get back to painting tomorrow, so until then i have had to keep myself busy. with all the things i sold i had some extra cash and decided i would try to get a couple bodies in colors i didnt have yet.
so between bst threads and ebay i have got a couple things, and some more on their way.

heres a model i am planning on using here shortly. and a black skyline, it came with a kit, but i like how this looks, and she looks good sitting next to her yellow sister.

If only I knew where you lived... You may not have those tomorrow. :p

Amazing collection. I wish I had that many...

You know what you should do, take all those barricades, and give them all unique numbers. Then you will have a huge xmod police force! Then you and a bunch of friends can play cops and robbers xmod style or something!

Where do you get your tires? I need something bigger than the stock truck tires, but not like, huge swampers.

seems like every time i clean it, it just gets put in the mud again. i clean chassis internals. but gave up on the body staying clean.

09-20-2008, 10:10 PM
Nice collection, i have a theory though... You buy all the barricades for their chassis and probably just keep the bodies cause you dont have the heart to throw them out.

I used to do the same thing when all my RS's had skylines left only...

EDIT: and the body lift on that hummer is too high for those tires...

EDIT: i just read that my thoery is exactly what you said above, so my theoory is just basically repeating what you said...(ill read first next time..)

not sure what you are talking about grinding. can you elaborate?
so you just slide in the lithium ion batts and thats it besides securing them with zip ties? or do you remove your whole metal chassis?
zip ties hold them in. and when i put them in i did loosen the top board support and put them in.
to be safe you should remove the board and the top brace and just pop them in
correct. mine have electrical tape around them so it made it a little tighter fit

how exactly do you hook your gooseneck trailer to stay on the ball in the bed of your 150? and where did u get the ball?

gravity holds it on, because of where the axles are on the trailer most of the weight is in front of them. i have drove it over many different terrains in my house and drivway and had it only pop off 1 time empty because the trailer caught something and lifted. never had it pop off loaded.
the ball is from my local hobby shop. its a ball connector for throttle linkage or servo linkage

i know i have stripped down 3 evo cars and 2 evo trucks long time ago for spare parts. but i build quite a few rollers oif each gen of cars and truck. as for boards i have another drawer with electronic stuff in it. but i don't go through that many boards any more. and worse case scenerio i can rob a board from a car that i don't drive if needed.

finally got my mint g35, and i took advantage of the sale, and got a new gtr and another vette, (not pictured, its the wife's and she's working on putting it together.)
and i found these 1/32 tamiya toys at the hs. they're 4wd and pretty cool. i'm thinking i can rob the wheels off of it for a truck, and mount the body on a custom chassis. its an isuzu thats waiting for a paint job.

Zippo, I'm pretty jealous of that awesome blue Z. Did you get it as a body or did you get a whole German starter kit?? If you got it with chassis, is there any difference in a German chassis? I'm also loving the GPM chassis, not so big on the gold, but what color are the other parts? They don't look silver, too dark.

get it! and get the body kit! then put it on here for sale as nib and you will get like $175 for it!

That's a great idea except that it would cost that much to get just one. Unless you know someone in Germany who will ship at a reasonable cost. The only place I've found that will ship to US wants 65 EUR for shipping, add 64 EUR for car and body kit and you're at $180US. Not a good business formula.

the orange ones are nice, but everyone has them. not too many blue zs around. i'd say get it if you get the chance. and i'm loving the alloy as well.
get it! and get the body kit! then put it on here for sale as nib and you will get like $175 for it!
you would lose money as xmodcanuck said. shipping is outrageous from there. i was looking at the b,x lexan bodies. under 20 bucks for the body. but almost 100 bucks to ship here.
not quite. i bought the z for 150$ with a chassie. and i sold just a roller the body and body kit to zippo. if he wants to share the price then he can lol :D
why share prices? lol. it ws a good deal none the less. and i'm thinking i have a blue alloy chassis that will look sweet under this anyway.

as 123 said its a roller chassis. looking at them closer i think its gold and gunmetal. not exactly sure. i'll be able to answer that better once my other gunmetal stuff shows up.

i got these chassis in trades and good deals. usually if you bargain hunt on ebay and look for sales from different places you can drop from 80-130 depending on how of deals you get. some of the rarer colors, black etc. you can drop 150 or more. and then it just depends on what kinda chassis plate you put under them. like the x.i. aluminum chassis were 30 bucks. and ive seen knock of stilettos as cheap as like 15 bucks on ebay. but the atomic ones are a bit higher than that.

exactly. the ideal amount of toys is more than you can play with ;)


well i was thinking how can i make this gold look so much better? well i went to the hardware store and picked up some screws that i found will work with the gpm screw holes. got everything installed. and also paired my gold swing arms with this also. and decided to put it on the extenda chassis

heres some drooling pics. i need to get some aluminum polish and clean the chassis back up from my fingerprints.

which one, the extenda chassis? it's a prototype from chris at x.i. that i aquired a while back from goodfellaz on xmf.

well, didnt get a chance this weekend to do anything really, but work and work on my truck. and it was a bad weekend, won't go into details but it was bad.

but the only good thing that happened this weekend was getting this curio cabinet. was able to fit 27 cars in it. well 22 cars and my 5 alloy or highly upgraded chassis that i have in their. once i get some standofs i'll get my nos chassis back in there.

i dont think i've gotten any new bodys since last posted, but have got some new b/ks, couple sets of slammed rims all nib (not pictured) also scored a set of cool dragons.

if you counted them you see there is 52 cars in there right now, so total capacity will be 54 cars. maybe 55 if i decide to squeeze another alloy chassis on that shelf.

comments and questions please

i still got some more that i dont have room for in there. and i don't think i can squeeze and more in that cabinet abfter i fill those 2 spots. lol

definately keeps them dust free, main reason i wanted something like this. i bought the curio from my mom, she said she hadnt dusted it in like 18 months, and there as barely any dust in it.

definately baby safe, although i do have to clean the bottom front glass often as he likes to go up and look in there and puts his hand prints on it. :lol: its all good though, its fun watching him when i do drive them. before long he should be able to drive one as well. lol he's still growing like a weed, at his 9 month appointment he was 31 inches long and like 21 lbs or somewhere around that on his weight.

thanks man, i have grown to like that charger as well, just need to get the working photo etched butterfly kit for it at some point.

yeah in certain light the silver sky does look that way. a guy on another forum got one that was the same way. not sure if its the paint of what. im going to see if i can do anything about it, or just b***h about it and live with it.
lol. the white subaru is sitting in new york city, along with another fujitsubo subaru where it has been since the 4th. i have an inquiry being made into why it hasnt moved past there.

lol, thanks man. dont think im going to dip em in alcohol though.

well heres some better pics of the silver skyline, the blue 350z and the dark blue 65 stang. and i also had another box show up. had some body kits i found, and a black honda integra. once my sliver integra shows up ill can cross that off my list as well.
and the body kits are 1x european subaru kit, 2 x white honda nsx, 2 x silver honda integra, and 2x regular 350z. alright enough talk heres some pics.

thats weird, why is he saying that? you should be able to buy as many as you have money for.

and time for some more additions. i picked these up off another member. im sure you guys know who did them, as they have been seen before :) and pics really dont do these trucks justice. they look soooooo much better sitting in front of me.

no its a 2s2p setup. aaa liths were usually used this way since they had a low mah rating.
