Roth Potter Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 One of my other hobbies Is model railways, but since a few months I'm adding to that model cars. These cars are the same scale as my trains and will drive on the same 'table' landscape as my trains. For this I need cars to transform to drivable, obviously... These are made using regular 1/87 H0 cars.My landscape is based on the Netherlands from in between 1995 and now, so most cars will be European. But I really want a 1969 or 1968 Dodge Charger for it.I have a feeling my 'European' Google has only been looking in Europe as all its results were in Europe. But none were even in the scale 1/87 or a model car. The only thing I saw was a 1/87 3d printed solid model without colour or wheels. Now my question is, could anyone from outside Europe give it a try to see if they can find anything?I would be greatful, thanks In advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Have you tried looking for HO scale slot cars? I know it's not exactly what you want but it's the correct size.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dodge-Charger-GENERAL-LEE-Dukes-of-Hazard-REL-1-HO-SCALE-SLOT-CAR-MIB-/221608722734http://www.amazon.com/Johnny-Lightning-Thunder-Jet-500/dp/B0050OHYTQ/ref=sr_1_4?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1435151574&sr=1-4&keywords=Dodge+Charger+Black+HO+Slot+Carhttp://www.amazon.com/Auto-World-Charger-X-Traction-Ultra-G/dp/B00HQQ05JW/ref=sr_1_2?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1435151574&sr=1-2&keywords=Dodge+Charger+Black+HO+Slot+Car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roth Potter Posted June 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Thanks for that! It´s not the best detailed car for what I need but if I can´t find a better one I could certainly do it with something like that. I need to modify the frame anyway. For now I´ll continue my search and hope to find a proper one but this might do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Those cars I linked to above are actually S Scale in the hobby train world as Slot car HO scale is 1/64th. I did not realize they were two different scales for slot cars and trains. Found this you can repaint into Rosco's Police car http://www.enginehouseservices.com/products/DODGE-MONACO-4_DOOR-SEDAN-_-DODGE-_-HO-Scale.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
