all,Small confession - I've never delved into this area of scale modelling, so it's education/upskilling time.
Was recently itemising my diecast collection and stopped at my 1/32nd scale Piaggio Ape and the little gears in my head started turning thinking this has modification potential
. So after a quick hunt around on the interweb I'd sourced the likely alteration.So my task now is to get from:
to something like:
Having a couple of odd scale bikes in the collection that can donate bit's (1/18th Solido's) I'm settling for a build in 18th (a new build scale for me).
Here's a couple of vid's so you can see how hilarious these things are when racing:

Right. Time to start surgery on the donor bikes and then some hack'n'slash for a chassis. Proper progress to follow.
Cheers for dropping by for a gander.
