Ideas please.

I have a spare Toivonen Unipart 6R4. Is there any decals available to convert from RAC car?

Thank you

Are you asking about other Toivonen 'Unipart' liveries Chris, or other decals that would fit the plain white LHD base model once you've stripped it?

Thanks guys. Should of been more specific . Yes David I want to just convert into another rally but still with the "Unipart" livery. Thankyou.

As you may already know Chris... Harri used two different cars during the 1986 season - the Rally Engineering Development run C997LCA on the British Open Rally C'ship, and the Austin Rover Motorsport run C96KOG on the 1000 Lakes Rally and Lombard RAC Rally. Unfortunately however, the liveries were very very different, so the only one you could really build from your spare RAC car is his 1000 Lakes entry... ...unless you already have one of those built using Carlo's decals that is?

Here is Harri's Austin Rover Motorsport run 1986 1000 Lakes Rally entry...



...and here is his R-E-D run 1986 Circuit of Ireland Rally entry (Thanks to Dave for the use of his photo! )

Toivonen CoI '86 decals, I know nothing of this sellers decals, but it seems you can pay £12, £12.72, £13.25 or £15.88 for the same set of decals from the same seller! Also has Llewellyns listed for the same event

Just realised that pic needs updating after the correction work by Code343

Thanks all. Looks like it is to be the 1000 Lakes one

do it with gravel wheels

Avoid this seller-his stuff is from scanned decal sheets and then printed on a laser printer-quality is very poor

Agree 100% Rory, poor quality & often missing decals.

Thanks for that Rory, he does list some interesting stuff but had never bought any from him thankfully!

I've heard a few bad things about his decals too. I will get them through Carlo when I get round to it.

Oooer! One to avoid, then!

Thanks for the warnings, guys.

Cheers and happy modelling, Steve

I ordered Chris Tilly decals and incorrect. sent pics of missing decals and never heard again from him

STAY CLEAR FROM HIM.

I had warned you.

Not only are his decals rubbish, he's a total a-hole too. I told him his decals were poor quality, incorrect and had missing logos. Got a cock and bull story about correcting them. He didn't. Left negative feedback and he sent me a series of ranting emails stating that because of my poor feedback, he'd have to shut his ebay shop, his kids would have no food to eat and I would be to blame.

He's a complete a-hole.

Think I might just buy a set of decals and leave him bad feedback just for the crack

he likes a good email sob story / threat!

I was going to order a set of 1/18 decals of anything just so his kids could have something to eat next week!

And this is just another of the great things about this place,I was genuinely considering buying decals from him!

Tell him if Jesus can feed 5000 people with 5 loaves and two fishes, his kids needn't worry
