there are still many nice cars, but a certain someone here bought all the good stuff and what i have been getting are the broken down leftovers like that f40.

i've been talking to the painter. he's going to do a full strip and do a bare metal respray. he wants the testarossa model for all his troubles. it costs as much as $100 on ebay right now (there is another version under the monogram brand but it is cheaper for reasons i do not know) so i am hoping this is a deal well made for the both of us. i've seen some of his scratchbuilt work before so i am sure he can do something awesome with it.

now if i could only find the 1/12 fujimi r32 gtr skyline kit...
