Looking for an Armored car?

OhioMike · 01-30-2008, 11:47 AM

I'm looking for a 1924 pattern RR armored car like this one. Any ideas?

Thanks Todd, but they arent a RR 1924 huh? I need one of these! Looking at the 4 view i posted i should be able to scratchbuild my own. I will have to do it the old fashion way though then see if i can creat a PDF of the parts, etc. for you folks. Wish i knew CAD!!!!!!!

Mike: if you send me a drawing of the RR wheels for this puppy, I may be able to noodle them up for you.

PM me with the drawings, scale, etc.

Ok....

OhioMike · 02-02-2008, 06:38 PM

The only image i have is the one i posted....do any scale that suits you best.

**Fishcarver** · 02-02-2008, 09:22 PM

Mike: did this vehicle run on rails only, or was it a 'convertible" like current MOW trucks are now? This is important!

PM me if you wish!

I could be wrong, but I think there is some confusion here over the abbreviation RR. (Rolls Royce vs railroad).

**Fishcarver** · 02-03-2008, 10:19 AM

Ah, so, Grasshopper..........

I was somewhat confused!!

I can do a "fast and dirty" build of your Rolls Royce if you can wait awhile....

This will be a black and white one-off card build at 1:35 scale off your drawing, once I know what scale your drawing is.....

OhioMike · 02-03-2008, 08:14 PM

1/35 scale would be great. This web site may provide you the dimensions but i havent looked thru it enough to know. Hope it helps......landships.freeservers.com/index.htm

Mike:

I really have to laugh at mistaking RR (= Rolls Royce) for RR = (Rail Road). This is definitiely one laff that El Fisho will wear unto the next world.....

Give me a few days.

I thinkx I can help you here....

You're not alone. I also thought it was railroad.

Mike: I need some dimensions for your drawing!

Then I can start!
