  1. Superb! I built one of these a few years ago! Here it is...
  2. Well thanks guys, very much!
  3. Thanks ismaelg. Yes these were V6 powered. The father of a school friend of our two sons bought one from the factory with no engine/gearbox, so he fitted a Rover V8 with gearbox and used it as a daily driver to his race exhaust business premises nearby!
  4. In the post a 3D printed Chevy Pick-Up Toon! Update: It was delivered today=
  5. Thanks guys, but just two more with night lamps propped on the front!
  6. I've left the roof aerial off as we are about to pack up to more house! I will just add a slight coat off clear gloss to stop the decals peeling off whilst in storage!
  7. All done! I've left the roof aerial off as we are about to pack up and move! I shall put a slight film of clear on the decals to stop them peeling off!
  8. Yes we still see a few at car shows across the UK each year!
  9. WOW! The ugliest truck/car on the planet!
  10. S'lookin great! I must look for a Cheetah body and have a go!
  11. Super kits, I used to build the 1:43rd white metal NASCAR kits about 20 years ago. Superb work so far!
  12. From Good Ol' ebay UK.. Perhaps conversion to a TOON vehicle!
  13. AH Doug, due to the high price of kits here in the UK, I only buy to build them, I think I only have under ten on the shelves in my garden cabin.
  14. A bit more: Front and rear lights , more decals, door mirrors, windscreen wipers and a few more bits to do!
  15. Superb, I'm building this at the moment. Yes we do cover up a lot of work we have completed. As we are in the UK cigarette advertising is banned so the word 'Racing' replaces 'Rothmans' whose UK HQ was only 20 miles away! As a 77 year old your detailing is far better than mine, well done! Do you build and attempt to fit the night lamps at all?
  16. If a problem arises I write a note on the instructions, with a large pencil star next to it, like now. I'm building a Belkits Metro 6R4 rally car. Looking at the underside of the body a radiator scoop is to be fitted inside the bonnet/hood to bring cool air into the body towards the radiator. The instructions show for part D9, Which is the darkened part on the left, to fix inside the bonnet shown, but there are no marks to line it up with? I've tried it two ways round and still can't fix it with the part D9 scoop showing through the slot in the bonnet! Sorry perhaps this is not the place!
  17. Yes thanks as I've said before up to my age of 5 years we had a British Road Services Depot a few doors away, so my much older brother by ten years was truck spotting every day after school!
  18. Update: Some decals on so far. Update: 14.07.25 The otherside is done now as well, now to the glass and PE Grilles.
  19. Super but where can I buy one, the model that is?
  20. That's OK Dave there are so many different cars and engines about over so many years!
