Basically, this car is something I have wanted for a long time, so I sent a request to Graymalkin and he agreed to do it for me. The livery is from the videogame 'Need for Speed: Most Wanted. It's based on a Ninco model, which is exactly the same as the videogame car right down to the wheels.

It started out life as this

And now it looks like this

Im so chuffed with it, I think it looks amazing. And I havent even got it back yet! These pictures are from Graymalkin himself.

Cheers!
One happy AM

Great! All you need is a few cop cars to go behind it.

Gorgeous car...nicely done!! It's a blast to drive a slot car which matches the video game car you like to drive! *grin*
At the risk of hijacking a fun thread, here's my own favorite video game car...the Bob Janes Lotus 26R from Power and
Glory/GTR2...

That looks like a nice job, and the label on the box base is a neat touch too!

choc-ice, the label is a noce touch, I particularly like the '1 of 1' - makes it extra special

thestig514, Most Wanted was my favourite Need for Speed, and I loved the BMW. Had to have it done

Great to hear he is still doing this. I lost contact with Richard a year or two ago. Send him my regards.

That surprises me FZS, considering the number of cars he did for you.

Yeah he went of the radar for personal reasons.

The DBR9 hes currently working on for me was originally sent to him in 2009.

Looks like hes back up and running again though.

Will send him your regards, we should really get a tribute thread to his cars going.

Anyhooo back on track, again great looking car.

Cheers

he did an afwull lot!! even his daughters helped redressing the japanese grid girls. But I was busy with a new business, had my hands full with loads of work, practice rebuilding and house rebuilding stuff. And reading and buying a little was the only thing I did.
The idea of a Graymalkin thead of legendary cars I something I like!
The practice is finished, the house too......... let's rock!!
