CIAO from ROME, ITALY!

[Deleted]

Hello Everybody!!! My name is Luca, and I'm a huge fan of motorsport! If it has wheels and a powerful engine, I LOVE IT!!! Mainly Formula 1 and LeMans, but also GT Cars and single seaters of any kind! And BIKEs as well!  I was born in 1965, and thanks to my father I've been almost immediately involved with cars: when he was young  he was a pilot, in the last years of the '50s, so he was very technical in every explanation. Thanks to him, I never find "boring" a race, cause there is always something interesting to look at. So, as you can imagine, building MODELS of my favourite cars has been a CONSTANT in my life!  Lately, I'm trying hard to find models -possibly in 1/25 scale- of the beautiful PARNELLI-INTERSCOPE 1980/81 Indy cars and/or any of the sharplooking 1979/80/81 DAN GURNEY's EAGLE !!! If any friend here could help me to find one of those models, he could easily have a friend in Italy for his next european/Italian tour!! If there's anything you may need from Italy, feel free to ask!! CIAO!!!
Luca.

Benvenuto, Luca!
Great to have you here.
I agree with you--there is no such thing as a bad race car, only poor designs.

Welcome! This is the place to find info on these type of models. I think Silver City Models is selling an early 80's Eagle. One of the other guys here will know for sure.

Nice to have fellow europeans here. Ciao Luca (BTW, I thought you were gonna say "I live on the 2nd floor..." ) from other guys across the pond, and across the smaller pond from you, that's Mediterranean... ;-) Best regards and welcome from Spain!!

I think the girl on the second floor spells it differently?

Luca, it is great to have you here. You certainly can find these from time to time. Kevin's currently pouring all of his line as far as I know. Lance Sellers does multiple cars from the 1981 500, among his other subjects which are released periodically. We have a Wanted section on this forum for users to post what you are looking for to see if anyone is willing to sell.

THANKS TO YOU ALL !!!! Looks like i'm in the right place to find interesting kits AND GOOD FRIENDS TO SHARE WITH MY PASSION FOR RACECARS!!!!
I just sent a mail to Kevin/Silvercity, so I'll keep you informed about what's going on, even because I'll need all the help you can give me to find proper infos for my models. Just to say, i'd like to start with Bobby Unser's blue Lightning, Indy 1977, and I'm trying to choose the correct shade of blue to use for it! What do you think?
