My very old plastic Tata Sierra is getting modded.

It is getting a two tone paint job (courtesy salilpawar1) and I have added a pulse neon !!

It is a colour changing pulse LED. Looks cool.

The mods are still in progress, check them out.

Er..... this time it has come off an old "fancy" pen.

Will have to check out with Ashokbhai, if he really has these kind of LEDs.

BTW, this is just one LED, which has multiple colours. And it flashes automatically. No complex circuitry involved!

@agspins - Nice, I have the Dodge and the 70 Mustang (in blue), am waiting for the current gen in 1:18 scale. I have the 1968 in 1:18 from Autoart Bullitt version.

Just picked up a 1:18 Toyota AE86 'Initial D' version made by Jada Toys, found it after a long time in a online UK based shop - shipped it my cousin studying there. So as of now its in his apartment :(

@Dippy - say a few 959s on ebay (Exoto) really expensive but look fabulous even in the tiny photos.

sinner · 8th December 2007, 22:36

Yes yes yes finally picked up a 1:18...
this time its a 1:18 SLR in silver....
i picked it from andheri lokhandwala... Will post the details in some time

Beem3r, super collection buddy. I am so green with envy right now. I would love the A8 W12 some day. Fabulous model that one. Also the Exoto Porsches are something. Guess you must be the only guy among one billion Indians to own such beautiful models. How exclusive is that???

Cyrus43 · 9th December 2007, 02:45

Cyrus43 · 9th December 2007, 02:46

Dippy · 9th December 2007, 13:55

Impressive preview Cyrus. Are those tuner cars in 1:18 which you are getting? They look really good. Hope your plans work out

Cant wait to see them.
