My 1/12 pan cars

Post by bearrickster »

Well I have a weakness for these cars. I didnt need another one but I am so happy I did it. I just bought another 12L4 from a member and it was a lot nicer than I thought it would be. I just wish they made cooler bodys for these, the wheel base is to long for Mrlexans cool old bodies, but it came with a new one so I will paint it up and see how I like it.

I know its not all Associated but I just bought a new 1/12 CRC Carpet knife I will be running this weekend. so I just grabbed some decals and a few spray cans and went to town. I am pretty happy with the body. its hard to tell but the pearl white looks great.

I had just won another carpet knife that needed a body. but that one got my body, and my new racer has this one. I couldnt pass it up for 40 bucks the Red and flames the viper words everything on this body is painted.

I havent update this for a while. here is my 12L3 since the last pic was taken. I bought this for parts but it was to nice to cut up so here is how it looks now. A good friend of mine on here helped me out with the custom decals. I cant wait to get some paint on it.

That's what I told him, he does very nice work. that RC12L3 is one of my favorite car's in my Collection. I am scared to paint it, I dont want the paint to mess up. I love the body so much and I haven't been able to find another one. so it remains clear for now.

I painted my Carpet Knife a few months ago it came out ok the white Mac car, I bought the Red body on my other Carpet Knife. I just got a new Camera for Christmas so I will be takeing all new pictures soon

I painted the 12L3 and as I expected the paint ate through a thin spot on the body but it will due untill I can find another Protoform Nissian body. I dont know what happed the paint crased the Lexan aroung both front wheels were the body was very thin.

If any one runs acrossed one of these bodys please let me know
