Which car would you like to have in 1/24? The model should be one that can not be found yet in stores or on the internetshops.

If someone posts here and you do know someone who has the model in 1/24, than please do tell!!!

I would like to have the: Alfa 33 Periscopio. This is one of my all time favourite car models. Unfortunately I haven't found it yet in the scale of 1/24.

Some pics:

I am looking forward to see some nice pics of cars I'm not even familiar with.

Hello Matthias

Not the periscopica but a 33/3 made by Michael Niemas.

I've got a 33/3 longtail that I've build for an IMCA worlds ...long time ago. I believe Harald Uhl made the body.
But as you know...1/24 is a lot about scratch building.
You want a car real bad...you start from scratch ..and build it ;)

Go 1/32nd and you might find a well preserved 33 from Fleischmann

I do beleive that the Periscopa is available (more or less) from Dieter Jens (if I remember correctly) He has had it....

Otherwise the above pictured 33/3 is beautious, and I want one :)

In 1:32 there's a beauty made by Cursa : http://www.cursamodels.com/modelos/alfa33_gb.htm

Those old grey cells are stil working henrik :holy There is a Wiesel resin kit of the Alfa Tipo 33 Periscopica.
And it is available via Jens Scaleracing and the corrent status is "sofort lieverbar".
So start building

good luck

This one is still missing in my Jan Lammers collection

A 1/24 1997 Lotus Elise GT1 (seen here at Le Mans)

Oh wauw! Close but no sigar! That one is still fingerlicking good. Thanks Henrik for the reminder that made Tamar look for the link. Good find Tamar, thanks. Work to do for me I guess, lol. Btw, cool Lotus. I will see you race that one in the nearby future?

@CarreraHenk: yes I know about the Cursa model, very sweet but in the scale of 1/32 and I already have the Fleischmann models so I really wanted to find one in the scale of 1/24. But the link is much appreciated.

Tamar if you make that Lotus I will pester you until you Sell me one! I have dreamed of having that Lotus GT since it raced, being a Lifelong Lotus fan!

Sorry Paal...not very likely that that will happen.
We made one attempt many years ago, had a club member that had one of the first 3d scanners..but it did not work.

Best way to do it would be to scan the autoart 1/18 model and scale it down to 1/24 with a 3d printer.

Wasn't there a Dane on the forum with such a printer ?
