Ebbro kit part source

Good morning all - Does anyone know of a source for Ebbro replacement parts? I'm currently building their Lotus 49C and lost a small part (I guess my old eyes aren't what the were ). Any help in locating a parts source would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Re: Formula E cars

For me the sound of FE cars is the greatest turn off. They remind me of the slot cars I raced in my youth. The courses they race are too much like slot car tracks (walls every where). To each their own but FE is just not for me.

Re: Tamiya SF70H

Just finishing one of these models that I purchased between 2-3 years ago. Didn't realize that the current prices were so high or I probably wouldn't have built mine. Just kidding- I'm a builder not a dealer. Don't get me wrong when I say that this is a very nice kit but I don't think I would buy on...

Very, very impressive. Your dedication to your project is an inspiration to those of us who have "I'll get back to it" projects in our stashes. Great work on a most unique model. Thanks for sharing and congratulations.

Re: Another legend gone

Had the good fortune of meeting Bobby Unser (and his mom) during the 70's at the now defunct Ontario Motor Speedway and Riverside International Raceway. They were both lovely people who made you feel that they were as interested in you ( a college student) as you were in them. No affectations - just...

Re: 1/20 scale Lancia Stratos decals

Thanks for all your help/responses. Steveracer, the Entex kit I have has the stickie "vinyl" decals. I decided to scan them and print on decal paper. After some fine tuning in photoshop I got some fairly decent results. No perfect but neither is the Kit :). Again thanks for your help and h...

Re: Empty boxes - to keep or not to keep

I throw away sprues and save unused parts. I scan smaller kit's box tops and instructions for all kits onto a dedicated hard drive. Save the box tops for larger kits and everything else goes.

And a tree, which is just for Santa and ...
