I thought for a second you were talking about me (and it would have been news to me)!

That's what I thought when I looked at the heading. I figured you were getting out of 02's for a while

Interesting.... that the Tii model has a carbed engine in it, and the 1802 police touring has a Tii engine in it. And the black 74 2002 Tii L is badged as a 2002 L, but has a ti twin carb engine in it. But, the red 74 2002 tii L is badged as a Ti L, but has the Tii engine in it. Nice sport steering wheels and wheels in the "L"s.

Really nice models though, lots of great details. Now if you bought one of each you could mix and match parts and build a great car.

Potential thread hijack:

Has anyone ever painted one of these before? I've got a '73 white tii that I would like to paint Atlantik to match my '73. I'm just wondering how difficult that might be. If anyone has done this, please advise.

Thanks!

Yes, you can paint them. I painted an Anson brand 1:18 2002. I used a dremel to sand down all the plastic attachment points for dash, "glass", etc. I took the thing completely apart. Painted it Pastel Blau along with my car. My only advice is to paint very lightly. It took some work to get everything to reattach with the extra paint in all the grooves! One of these days if I ever get the car back together the model will sit on my rear deck at an event!

Sweet! Thanks for the info. I'll probably try it out once I get laid off and have LOTS of free time. : )

With a properly set up air brush, it's possible to paint models as small as 1/87th scale (HO model railroad scale - an '02 in 1/87th scale is a bit under 2" long) without losing detail, or getting paint-film build up thick enough to make reassembly difficult. It's also possible to put paint on thin and dry enough to paint plastic models with automotive paint products as long as the material is sprayed over a couple of thin layers of primer.

I won't buy one because it will make my butt look big.
