Thanks guys, much appreciated!

Thanks Bob, as I said on another thread I just love decalling, after only 60 years of model making!

I have used the decals from another more expensive GT3 kit, so modifying the decals to fit. This is the GT3 car.

A few decals, that were for a GT3 racing version which is twice the price of this kit. So a bit of cutting decals to fit! Especially around the doors!

Yes that6's a five OK!

Mercedes Benz AMG.

No steve just over £16!

THROO ebay UK! 07.06.25 Update Kit arrived all parts there, box dated 1960! Very similar to the Lindberg kits of the same era, superb! Body comes in green so will use car polish to smarten up! Also note that only one seat, not another for the girlfriend then!

Two new Renaults or as named in the Renault sports line of Alpine. Both are in a neighbours driveway, these are promotional pictures. And the new Renault 5 is an EV, in the Alpine range.

I complained a few months ago that when I posted photo's of a build it opened a new account, instead of adding the pics to the original build account. They couldn't understand what I meant, and it finally stopped taking anymore posts, so I stopped using it! So I had to find another hosting site and we don't have many in the UK!

We don't see any of these trucks here in the UK, how much?

Chassis of Revell Mercedes Benz AMG. Buttercup Yellow spray coming tomorrow for body!

Thanks again Carl.

Cheers Carl!

Thank you Michael.

Another classic rally car! Against the real new version seen just a few hundred yards from where I'm sitting. Or the new Renault Five EV also by Alpine, in the same driveway!

Thanks guys, yes the decals need a steady hand something I struggle with at 77!

All done in my colour way, no aerials fitted as packing to move soon will no doubt knock them off!

Superb looking kit. I would see these each year at the Silverstone Circuit (just 5 miles away) for the Classic Car race meetings (better than the F1 GP) as a race and airfield marshall for over 20 years!

Update, a few lamps and decals. My own colours on this one and mudflaps!

Coming along very nicely. I think it's the same kit as I bought and shortened it.

I built my first kit in 1956 and it was an Airfix Supermarine Spitfire 1/72 scale, suggested by my RAF Flight Sergeant father. Although my Mother carried on a bit when I got the glue and paints on the dining room table! After that I had to wait until Father had read his large size Daily Telegraph newspaper each day to cover the table from further damage!

The BMW M1 was painted by a top surrealist artist Andy Warhol upwards of 40 years ago

Cheers Anton.

Yet another Tamiya Scooby Rally car, with my own interior colours! With a little bit extra of yellow in places!
