  1. Very well done - looks great in this red/white livery !
  2. Very nice, Hanjo .
  3. Super nice Ferrari, Paul - with the right background this could easily be mistaken for the real one.
  4. Very nice rendition of Niki Lauda's 1978 racecar, Hanjo!
  5. I plead not guilty, Sir !
  6. Nice model, Gary - looks like you handpainted the numbers and the Porsche stripes !
  7. Excellent model, Rich - I never heard about this rare resin kit before. The spark plug cables - OMG !
  8. The kit may have its issues (remember - it is from the 1960's!), but you handled it very well which resulted in a nice model (been there, done that too)
  9. Excellent execution and superb photography, as always !
  10. Just received two of my all-time greats ( = grails): 1969 Mirage Mk. 3 (Ford Cosworth) of Jacky Ickx/Jackie Oliver from DDP 1/24 and the 1971 Porsche 917 Martini LH of Vic Elford/Gerard Larrousse from Le Mans Miniatures 1/24:
  11. the last of my 1/24 diecast bikes: the sportsbike from BMW, introduced in 1973 in smoke silver, from 1975 onwards also available in "Daytona orange", produced until 1976, only to be replaced with the R 100 RS sports-tourer. The engine will be de-chromed someday to add a bit of realism, the color needs a tint of clear orange (is more gold than candy orange) but otherwise a nice little model:
  12. 10 years ago, this model has been sold for € 10,00 ... it does need a little TLC - the pics show it untouched
  13. a cheap solution: reworked/refined Politoys 1/25 die-cast Mangusta with Fujimi wheel/tire- combination mimicking the original Campagnolo wheels:
  14. part 3 of my 1/24 street bike collection (the year on the baseplate is not always correct: Here we go: 1969 Honda CB 750 Four: 1971 Kawasaki H2 750 Mach IV: 1976 Honda GL 1000 Gold Wing: 1978 Yamaha XS Eleven: the last 2 have photo-etched brake-discs: 1981 Suzuki Katana 1100: 1984 Kawasaki GPZ 900R Ninja:
  15. Wishing you a speedy recovery I'm looking for your upcoming products (just now, thinking about your Citroen SM wheels for converting the Hachette diecast into a Rally du Maroc participant...)
  16. Jason, I have gone through my Ferrari books and did not find anything that could help you - but here is a link to the Borrani website feauturing wheels and tires front and rear for Ferrari 250 GTOs - maybe this will provide the necessary information: https://www.borrani.com/ferrari-wheels/250-gto.html
  17. same as before,but this time bikes made in Italy: 1971 Laverda 750 SFC: model with photo-etched drive-chain 1973 MV Agusta 750 S: Ducati singles: 1973 Scrambler 450: and 1974 Ducati 350 Mk3 Desmo: the famous twin: 1974 Ducati 750 Super Sport: 1978 Moto Guzzi 850 Le Mans (photoetched disc-brakes): and finally one, desperately trying to catch up with all the above - Moto Guzzi 700 V 7 "Polizia Stradale", 1969:
  18. Fantastic - looks like the real one - one of my 3 all-time favorite sportscars !
  19. Excellent model, Michael - looks superb in those colors! This shows to its best advantage that not every Ferrari has to be red - even if some modeling companies think so, obviously. I sold mine because of the massive, unelegant looking body and the bad chrome grill and wheels. I should have kept it though mine was molded in white (first issue) so painting would have been much easier.
  20. Very nice model, Rich, with outstanding decal work (though modern F 1 cars are not my cup of tea)
  21. to go with your car models or any garage diorama: 1960 BSA Gold Star DBD34: 1965 BSA 650 Lightning: 1967 Triumph T120 Bonneville: and 1969 Norton 750 Commando:
  22. Looks good: These mean machines must have been really a handful - similar to a rodeo cowboy riding a bull: sitting almost on the drive axle while trying to handle the power.
  23. Superb weathering on this trusty, rusty old workhorse, Mario - just fabulous!
  24. Hello Jason, it's great that you joined the forum - now it is easier to contact you directly - I introduced your Jaguar E-type spoke wheels here and have ordered also the Cromodora and Porsche 356 wheels from you. What do you think of Borrani wires (especially for Italeri 250 GTO - these have the same widthfront and rear which is totally wrong) that have been proposed to you by Pierre (Rivard) ? These would be very welcome indeed! Keep up the good work!
