Ok here's what I may sell if the price is right. I have a 1/4 scale replica of a 2001 Cobra engine. It's number 0006 of 1000 pieces made. It comes with it's own stand and official plaque with production number. It's absolutely brand new, still have the box and packing. Not even any dust on it. It has moving drive belt accessories, timing chanes, cams and valve springs move, pistons and crank moves, the flywheel moves. It's 100% realistic model, and it's a very limited production model. They retail for $300 but since they are now VERY hard to find I will only part with it for a good amount more then $300. Here's some pics, not of mine because my cam is having the CCD chip cleaned. If you are intrested let me know

OMG....that thing is COOL AS HELL. How long have you had it?

I would love to have one, but unfortunately, no way that thing will ever make it to my house at its actual cost.

But seriously, good luck selling. That sure would look nice in my trophy case....

They are pretty cool. I have number #327 that I bought shortly after getting my '03 Mach 1.

RE: Gauging interest

Somehow I broke one of the chains that go around the left side camshaft on mine so I pulled the little oil cap off and drilled out the plastic underneath it. I then made some tools with paperclips and “fished” out the chain through the opening. I was able to fix the chain by rejoining it with some thread. The little engine is pretty neat because you have a little crank to turn the motor over and watch all the parts move on the inside.

Who manufactered that model? That's really cool!

Here's a company that does some serious models too:

http://www.fineartmodels.com/e/models.htm

A sample:

http://www.fineartmodels.com/img/model/auto/monza/monza_0002_16.jpg

Click the menu on the left for various car, train, military and ship models. Prices start at around $8500 and go up from there. The site is a bit confusing to navigate, but you can usually click on the big picture on each page to view a bunch of detail shots.

This 1/3 scale Ferrari is something special:

The V12 engine is supposedly fully functional and will run.
