Nice job Narbeh, I never saw Ricko's Porsche before...how does it stack up with Sun Stars?
29/08/2013 9:43 am
The Ricko is quite a bit more detailed & a nicely done model. The Sunstar is a 356A, while the Ricko is a 356B (& officially listed as customized, as I think it has some non-stock equipment on it).
Red is SunStar, black is Ricko.

Thanks Gavin, I can see the better quality in Ricko's version...still like Sun Stars too

Ricko's porsche 356
Thanks
As far as quality it is much better and it is a bit different since it is a 1960 model, I think Sunstar's is 58 or 56

From someone who spends a lot of his time modifying sports racing diecasts, it's great to see some well executed conversions. Thank you and please post some more when you have a chance.

This is very nicely executed and apparently well researched too. I like it!

Wow! That'a a lot of modifications projects. You're a very busy man!

A great collection of work. My favorites are the silver Lussos with the yellow stripes and the yellow SWB with the red stripe. Always get new ideas when I look at others work. Please keep posting your new ones.
