Just a small teaser of something special that is coming up:
I did a photoshoot of a quite rare and special car and can you guess which car it is?
tay tuned for the full photo series!
Category: amazing
This ad on Marktplaats (Dutch Ebay/Craigslist) really shocked me: a genuine Mazda RX5 with less than 1000 kilometer on the odometer!
Obviously I contacted the seller and he confirmed the car is genuine. It never left the dealership and nobody has owned the car before and it was only used occasionally for a (very) short drive to keep it in good condition!
Now imagine how immaculate this car is: Continue reading
Nori Yaro found this picture on Kawasaki’s blog at Doriten:
Daijiro Inada at the age of 25

Anyway, yet another blog to follow I guess. :(
At first I could not believe these two diecasts are customized and painted by hand:
Initial D and Drift Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86
But they actually are: Gee is doing a lot of diecast customization and he does it all by himself!
See the details yourself:
Use tape/gum to mask the panda scheme
First he takes them apart. He uses a mix of tape and gum to mask the panda scheme first before painting the body.
Almost perfect panda scheme!
Here you can see the rear it has got an almost perfect panda scheme: only the black line above the taillights should be much much thinner.
After painting he modifies the wheels and put everything back together. In this case he painted them black but some others received wheels from other diecasts.
You can see the end result well on this picture of both cars:
The finished product: perfect Initial D AE86
Both AE86s look stunning! Almost hard to believe they are only 1/64 scale!
And doesn’t this look familiar?
Initial D Sprinter Trueno AE86 on trailer
It is only missing the oil spots on the windscreen and fenders. :D
If you want to see much more amazing diecast customizations you can find his blog here:
Gee’s Garage
If you want to do your own diecast customization you may take the 1/64 Mattel diecast of the Toyota AE86 as base.
