RE: A FG VAN and other sweet rides
Looking at the van, the wheelbase spans only one slat of deck, the touring car shells span two. So, I have to conclude that the van is not 1/5 or 1/6 scale, and therefore not an FG. Three of the other four pictures show bodies resting on a deck with assorted wheels stuffed into the arches (the Porsche and the orange one is missing a rear wheel). Props, in other words. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this looks like a con job - I see only one large scale car here.

The last pic you can look right through the car to the other side rear wheel well and see the deck! Very nice body collection though!!!

chowderhead72, The Van is badass ? ye, right
hellya, i just love that 2nd car and the 3d car is great to in those pictures, and the fourth one is nice to [sm=thumbup.gif] my favorite is definitely in that 2nd picture. Don't care much for a rc van, but you have made an improvement to yours compared to others i have seen, great work [sm=thumbup.gif]

RE: A FG VAN and other sweet rides
my dad had that van (full size) when his car was in for service and it looks big and slow. and yes it's huge but man does that thing have pick-up. We were passing people at 160 km/h (about 100 mph) on the highway and it felt like we were going the speed limit. that's german engineering for you.
