Cyrus,

The Maserati has amazing potential for mods. What make and how much did it cost you ?

agspins · 16th April 2010, 09:46

@ siddvi that is sweet, it seems every week you keep adding some to your fleet.

@Cyrus sweet Maser there, whats the make? .

siddvi · 16th April 2010, 23:42

Rotorhead, the '49 Mercury coupe traveled ~8000 miles from the West to join other classics in the collection. The '53 Cadillac Eldorodo was gathering dust at a novelty shop and found home during my recent brief stop-over in Mysore. The '55 Oldsmobile was found closer home at Sapphire toys. The '49 Mercury cost me ~US$12 while the Eldorodo and Oldsmobile were about INR 600-700, IIRC.

@agspins: Thanks. I don't pursue them much like before but will surely pick when I come across one interesting.

@shahen9: Just to add to what Cyrus43 put in, American Graffiti is also generally priced higher.

@Cyrus43: Nice pics of the Maserati. Thanks. BTW, what make is it?

Cyrus43 · 16th April 2010, 23:45

Its a Hotwheels. And it cost me Rs.1300. Another Masser for you guys, The awesome SPYDER

The finish is pretty acceptable for the price... although it does leave ample room for more improvement
