Hello......this is a MPC 1/12 scale Blower Bently that I bought from Herb Deek`s about 2 years ago...... when I saw Harry Pristovnik `s Blower Bently build.......it inspired me to build mine......I searched the web for reference and came across "Master" builder Francesc Pulido`s Blower Bently .......he is from Italy.......every part was hand made with brass and he used blueprints......so I used reference from him........mine was totally changed....... to many scratch built parts and modifications to mention........mine is all styrene ........I used Tamiya J N green and Tamiya green......all chrome was stripped and painted alclad......"Pro Tech" braided line,detailing wire,spark plug wire,nut and bolt ends,fuel line and t`fittings.......wood floor and sticky back velvet .......if you would like to see how I built this model.......please look in the "Work Bench" section.........thanks for looking.

John, I watched this build and must say that you turned out another masterpiece! This is absolutely beautiful and very well executed. I learn something new from everyone of your builds and this one was no exception. Keep up the great work!

Now, put it in the driveway, stand back, and get off a bunch of different angle shots, then Harry could use it for Real Or Model!!!
Great work as always John.
Keep on building and inspiring us my friend.
