Hello all, iam a newbie, trying my hand at some putty work making a body kit and such other mods, iam almos sure that i will make mistakes cuz i have idea such as Z3 fenders and diablo doors, and things, so i was wondering if there was any1 out there that could maybe spare a extra supra body from the 1/24 stock supra kit from tamiya?
this is the kit: http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljpage.cgi?TAM24123

I'll sell you mine for $150. Or, you could have posted this in the classifieds section, it's one of the sticky threads at the top.

When Hobby Lobby has their 50% off sales you can pick up that kit for $9. I pick one up every time they have the sale.

that's gonna be your best bet. I doubt many people here will be willing to get rid of a supra body. I've got a few and it would probally cost ya around $150 just like willimo is charging. :evillol:

150$ isn't high when you consider the time put in this and all the material.

Vric: how is 150 not high?!?!?!?!?! for 1 1/24 scale body? i just want it stock, no mods no nothing, 150 thats utterly insane :S considering the full kit cost me $18
CADguy:what is the Hobby Lobby you speak of? is there a webite?
IImportSupra: brake fluid on a 1/24 supra body? :S, and is that F&F supra one?

$150 is not high at all when a large amount of work is put into it. I have sold some models for as much as $300. Look at Willimo's models, they are excellent pieces of art.

Hobby Lobby is like a craft store.

Brakefluid is used to strip paint.

HAHAHA guys I was just joking. I don't have a Supra body for sale. I have the kit, but it would be useless without the body. That's the point I was making. It was just a little teasing... that it will be difficult for him to find a Tamiya Supra body all by itself, and he might as well get a whole second kit (that's what I'd do, that's what I did on for my FD). That's all. Silly folks. Tee-hee.

Hobby Lobby is a craft discount chain, they have a small but surprisingly well stocked plastic model section. And better yet, they have sales every so often (1/3 to 1/2 off plastic models!!) that are great for populating your parts bin. Throw "hobby lobby" into google and you'll find their site... I'd do it but I figure you can do some work.

The sign is broken at my store, so if it's dark I go to Hooby Looby instead.
