Announcing our Replacement Tires for the Lamborghini Aventador
As we have built new Replacement Tires for all the Pocher marquees: it was only natural we would build them for the new Pocher Lamborghini Kit. They are flexible (no need to heat! See instruction photo from the Kit manual below), the right feel, color and...as the photo above shows they deflate. The secret was in the rib we built into the Tire. We were concerned the weight would squish the Tire, but, the rib holds them perfectly.
You can see the deflation in this prototype photo.
The ribs are clearly visible in the photo. $35.00 each (Click here to place an order) . . . . . . . . Lamborghini Aventador Photo

. . . . . . . . Turning a Pocher into a Work of Art!
That's not the prototype! It's a photograph of Craig Chirgwin's award winning model of the Alfa 8c2300 "Muletto". Marvin was in Australia to be a judge in the annual Model Expo Show in Melbourne last June. Craig's model won First place and two special awards; deservedly so! He spent two and half years building it...and, it shows. His attention to details is amazing. An inspiration to us all!

In 1991, we started Model Motorcars with
a focus on building the legendary Pocher 1:8 scale classics and a dedication
to the enjoyment of building these models. During the past 20 years,
we have built many Alfa Romeos, Bugattis, Fiats, Mercedes-Benz and Rolls-Royce
scale motorcars and, in doing so, have developed over four hundred parts
that you can use on your own Pocher project. In addition, we have written
books and published CD's that go into great depth about the Pocher building
process. And finally we have compiled a vast catalog of hardware, tools
and machines that have become invaluable to us throughout the years. |
