Maybe I'll start saving money to buy it.

First, I gotta finish my electronic Toronto Metro Police Chevy Caprice project.

Anyone know where I can find parts for converting a 1/25th scale 94 Impala SS into a Police Package Caprice 9C1?

Probably the same way half of mine were damaged, little brother, pets, etc.

Right now, I've got 3 large dioramas set for repairs.

On one of them, a UN Peacekeeper checkpoint, the entire rear cab of a hummer is caved in from a rubber ball that bounced off a wall and hit it. cry: cry:
