1/18 Auto Art (I need parts?)

I know I'm really looking for a needle in a haystack. Several years ago kids were playing with my Mach 1 model on the shaker. It fell and I lost the left drivers outside mirror and the right exhaust tip.

Anyone have a cheap damaged parts car or a car that you don't want anymore. Or perhaps just have the two parts I need. I'm not paying $300 for a new car!

Re: 1/18 Auto Art (I need parts?)

I gave my original one to my son to play with when he was 2 or 3 years old. I never would have guessed the prices would go to where they are today. He broke it and I eventually threw it away. I guess I should have parted it out lol.

Re: 1/18 Auto Art (I need parts?)

Wondering how much of a noticeable difference there would be between 1/18 scale and 1/24 scale models for something like that.

Revell made some Mustang plastic model kits (I was thinking you could pilfer parts from a kit of a similar car), but it would probably look wonky since they would not be the same size.

Re: 1/18 Auto Art (I need parts?)

Here's a red one in the original box for $89 plus $37 shipping from Japan. Says that there's a "bruise" somewhere but from looking through all the pictures I can't see it. My guess is it's minimal and would still be better than $300 for one. I bought my oxford white one from Japan a couple years ago and it arrived in mint condition.

This one could stay in your house and be kept nice while you continued to use the "damaged" one for shows.

My little guy got a hold of one of my Auto Machs so I bought another and always kept the broken one just for parts.

Re: 1/18 Auto Art (I need parts?)

People may be asking $300 for an Autoart, but I doubt they're getting that. The most I got for all my red, white and Blue autoarts was $125 a year ago. I got about $80 for the other colors.

Re: 1/18 Auto Art (I need parts?)

I realized I made a mistake on original post.

I'm looking for the driver's side outside mirror NOT the passenger side.

Re: 1/18 Auto Art (I need parts?)

I have a white one that fell of the shelf during an earthquake like 10 years ago. Broken up, but I think all parts are present. The box is perfect. I would just like to sell as a whole.
