Famo

Post by Steve Norris »

Well it's arrived, only had to wait 4 days so not bad.
The seat covers had all come loose and were adrift in the box but apart from that everything seems fine.
The tracks and other small parts have yet to be added.
I don't plan on starting on it just yet as I have a somewhat larger job to complete.
Looks good

Hi!
Nice model!
But You have to take a look at wheels - two of my friends that had bought the Famo, found that road wheels were broken... The aloy was in bad quality...

It's from Asiatam in Germany. 599 Euro so quite expensive but worth it for a all metal vehicle.

That looks great, Steve, Congrats. I can't wait to see what you do with it. If the dollar gets much stronger against the euro I might have to pull the trigger myself. I better start savin' just in case, eh? :)
When FDR coined the phrase "The Arsenal of Democracy", he was talking about Detroit. Proud to live in the 2nd most violent city in America!!
