neil 2,398 #1 Posted January 30, 2019 Thought I’d post this up There is a chap that has just made this model RJ58 and is possibly going into production . Early days yet I think he has captured the detail excellently and is a brilliant likeness hopefully one day will get to own a couple . 12 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345 #20 Posted January 31, 2019 He's on facebook, here is his write up: Here are a bunch of pics of the prototype of my 1/16 scale wheel horse RJ-58. I am going to try to start producing a short run of these. I measured and modeled it from my exact original RJ-58 and every detail is there. This is just the rough prototype and the final ones will be painted the real colors. I don’t have a timeframe on how long it will take me to make more. This one took about a week, a couple hours a night after work at my engineering firm. Here's the link to the facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=776863072657095&set=pcb.10155858672410952&type=3&theater&ifg=1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,041 #21 Posted January 31, 2019 For the price he is selling them for I think I will just add a few more "life sized" ones to my collection. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
