  • ‪@dadcars‬ got in touch with me ahead of Shedfest 2024 to ask if I would be able to put together a slot car replica of ‪@AutoalexCars‬ MX-5 Phil. The only problem was I had 10 days to have it ready and I had never before worked on a resin slot car! The pressure was on.
    Thankfully, ‪@PendleSlotRacing‬ supplied this superb PCS Modified Mk1 Mazda MX-5 kit with a pre-assembled chassis, taking away a bit of the legwork for me. All I needed to do was put the body together, paint it, and adorn it in those familiar decals once again. Easier said than done, however!

    This video is wonderful 🙌🥰 thank you for pulling this off in time! Being able to race Phil on a Scalextric track while standing on a real race track was fantastic! 👏👏

    What an excellent video of assembling and painting the MX5 slot car kit. Thank you for sharing the video. Some wonderful tips and ideas on how to paint too, not just slot car kits but any kit. It will be of great help to us all on future projects. 👍

      Thank you very much for sending the model to me on such short notice! I’m really pleased with how it turned out considering the time constraints

    slot car looks good for first attempt; I have hopes for you to expand into larger scales like 1/24 and 1/18 scale, also the bigger size allows even more detail and allow more advanced methods of detailing like wiring distributors and carpet flocking as well. you could even use 1/24 or 1/18 resin parts to your advantage for customs!

    Tells a resto channel aka an obsessive compulsive not to worry about detailing. Yeah...right. Might as well ask the sun not to rise
