Spare parts for Tamiya models?

[Cara Van Man]

I'm after a couple of spare bits for Tamiya 1/12 F1 cars.....anyone sourced spare parts before?

I've found 1 phone number for 'The Hobby Company'.....anyone used them?

The Hobby Company are the distro in the UK for Tamiya. For F1 bits try www.goldstarstockists.com Jumbly web site with tons on it BUT absolutely first class service. If you don't see what you want, just email them.

This seems to be all RC stuff....not what I'm after, thanks anyway.

Well!!! I rang the Hobby Company and asked if they had the parts I needed (front wing assy for Williams FW14B)and the lady scuttled off to find if their was a set of 'B' parts.....unfortunately the set wasn't complete so she asked which parts I needed.

I read out the list of 5 or so items and amazingly the required parts were present

but the best bit was, she said they would send them for nothing!!

Sorted!!!
