I've been delving in my pile of old kits that came with me from my parents and have moved twice since, so have become a bit battered in places. The Alfa 155 DTM is in best shape, and will look a lot better if I clean it properly, but it does have a few issues. Here's a couple of pics straight from storage, complete with dust: There are few loose parts, and I screwed up a couple of the decals a bit back in the mists of time, with no clear coat over the top to protect them What would you guys suggest? I'm kind of toying with the idea of a strip-back, but then where do I get replacement decals from? These kits are kind of rare by the looks of things, judging by the prices on eBay. Now for the Sierra Cosworth, the OG version, not the watered down Sapphire one This one has taken a few hits, has a splinter out of the windscreen and some scratches too, then there's a wheel missing and one of the front wheels is semi-broken. The rubbery tyres have also split over the years, so if I decide to repair it, I'd need to find some replacement tyres/wheels. The wing mirrors have gone west too, but I might be able to create my own with some luck and a fair wind: This kit is almost invisible on eBay, and the occasional one I've seen has been for stupid money. Can I save this one? BTW, if you're wondering why there were no decals, I just liked black Cossies back in the day. No idea where the Texaco decals went, but they'd probably be knackered by now anyway. I've a feeling I could get some decals for this one, but the windscreen is the big issue. If anyone's got any suggestions, I'm all ears EDIT: Here's another one I found while I was looking for the Cozzie's "ears". It's a Peugeot 405 Ti V6 thingy - I think from the Paris Dakar rally. I don't know why, but I always liked it, possibly because of the stance and the fact that it's a 2-door jobby, so looks a bit sleeker than the dull boxy standard one. This one's ostensibly complete, although it's not intact anymore. The main issue would be getting decals for it. I've had a look online for the same decals, but don't seem to be able to find any Why's it on a piece of board? It was wet and muddy from being outside, so I didn't want to get my backdrop dirty
