Are there any FG models that aren't racers? It seems whenever Holden change a color theres a new model out straight away. Yet with Fords you still can't EF/EL XR's yet.

Top hat quality gifts usually stock them, and they have stores in a few places.

Yeah I haven't seen make them yourself aussie ones before.

Honestly though, eBay has just about everything. But watch a few items for a while, some are dreamers, but most are about right and you will pay a little less than instore.

Oh and the most under rated one are traxx models...www.topgear.com.au

Hit up the companys that make them, you will never get it if you dont ask. Ya never know, there could be a larger demand for them then you realise, and it just takes a few to let them know that they will sell to get them to make them. While your at it, they take orders, so you can get it in the colour and trim you want, with the numberplate you want etc as well.
