1/64th is the same scale as Hot Wheels cars and the majority of Matchbox vehicles.
Ditto Johnny Lightning* and Racing Champions. Plus there's a huge number of other
diecast vehicles in 1/64th. Including farm and construction equipment.

1/64th is also the old S Scale model railroad scale.

*Johnny Lightning did a nice 1/64th Supercar. Photos on the web really don't do it justice.

Too right, that canopy is wide enough for a side-by-side two seater!  :o

I turned mine into a StarTrek universe star ship by glueing the canopy on, puttying it smooth, reversing the direction of it and adding a saucer and engines. The main gear bay became a docking bay.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Say...

That's an interesting idea...

It takes only one drink to get me drunk. The trouble is, I can't remember if it's the thirteenth or the fourteenth.

I happen to have Academy F-104G and Mbox TF-104G in the Stash (one Italeri C and one Esci G too, mind you). The Academy one is destined to be hacked apart (along with a terribad Mistercraft F-16 or almost as bad Academy one) to become a freeform interpretation of the CL-1200, still wondering what to do with the MBox if it's really that bad. (Locally modified or licence built version?)
