Very nice Rich - these are some of the best-looking F1 cars ever and you did them justice ! I would like to see your whole race car collection... I have the original Clark 49 (and Rindt's 49 C/ Monaco 1970 winner) in my stash, so at least I do not have to backdate a later version - I wonder when I will find time to get to them. Moreover, the original 49 should urgently be reissued by Ebbro!

Makes a huge difference, Tim - I was tempted to buy this model some years ago, but it was offered as Franklin Mint (?)

Much better than the original spoke wheels, Tim !
-
Nice looking power beetle.

Ford GT40 1966 Le Mans winner

You did it again, Pierre ! Excellent model which puts mine to shame (needs a heavy rework). Superb paint and decal work - as always - and perfect wheels and tires ! -

Well done, Mario - it captures the spirit well, and the paint looks close enough for me. -
1959 Chevy EL Camino

Spectacular paint job on this stylish car Bob - will save the pics as inspiration for the one in my stash. -
My favorite instrumental : "Albatross" from Fleetwood Mac (the original cast, 1969)

The British "Woodie" - Morris Minor Traveller
1959scudetto replied to 1959scudetto's topic in Diecast Corner
My teacher in elementary school had a Morris Minor in 1966 - a 2 door sedan. -
Stumbled incidentially upon this announcement on the Spot model website: it is listed for preorder now (€ 49,28) - planned release in January 2024. Immediately looked upon the Revell AG site and found this: easy-click kit with 90 parts + Goldfinger movie poster - here is a link: https://www.revell.de/produkte-revell/specials/james-bond-007/aston-martin-db5-james-bond-007-goldfinger.html

Hard to believe that this is the trusty old amt kit, Anders - very nice! Are these the stock wheels from the kit ?

Mclean White Road Commander
1959scudetto replied to DRIPTROIT 71's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Absolutely great build of a no-nonsense typical fleet truck, Brian: Outstanding weathering - dust and grime - makes it look so realistic (also the absence of chrome bling-bling like vertical exhaust pipes and the like) Very well done! -
The British "Woodie" - Morris Minor Traveller
1959scudetto replied to 1959scudetto's topic in Diecast Corner
Thanks for clearing this up, David - I know they also made pickups and delivery vans using some sort of modular system in cutting off the cab behind the driver and adding a bed or a higher cargo body. I just wanted to point out that this is not a fault of the model, but represents the reality (picture of a 1967 version from the morrisminorforum): -
Made by Ixo, distributed by Hachette, this 1958 Morris Minor 1000 Traveller is from a British test series (therefore RHD), the same model was released in France in the regular series (with LHD) - cute ! The gap in the roof is true to the original !

Autoquiz #575 - Finished

PM sent. -
Very nice model in a fitting color, John - the stance is just right - how you have lowered it (I think the stock height of that kit is for the mid 70's rubber bumper model)
-
Did it come directly from the dealer's showroom? Perfect model, Mario - as we are used to from you.
