  1. More done to this, I can't find any decent pics of the fuel injection system on this so I've invented my own (its only really to fill space as the stacks are too far apart and it looks silly)
  2. Tried some of the body panels on.
  3. Hi all there are upgrade kits for the wheels of this kit but I honestly can see nothing wrong with the kit ones, they don't even need cleaning no flash of anything.
  4. Well the summer house is finished just the hot tub to add now. Here it is in the box.
  5. Did some more work on this (leaving the engine for now)
  6. Hi all rear dampers done WAPITA Pleased they're done but they took ages.
  7. Hi all more work on the Cobra. I decided to ditch the carbs (too much wrong with them ) The kit comes with fuel injection as an option I thought I would go with that, tbh a don't know which is worse, still I'm stuck with it now, hopefully I can improve on what the kit supplied (still won't be anything like accurate but maybe look interesting.
  8. OK 2 more coats of stain (one more I think would do it) Got the inside stained, got the electrics in. And importantly somewhere to hang the dressing gowns Our friend is coming round tomorrow (he owns a flooring business) To put some 1/4 inch ply on the floor and half way up the wall then cover it with vinyl.
  9. Yes some parts it gives you 2 choices of colour other places it says nothing ( and some of them are quite large parts) the diff and rear axle for instance no colour cal, out at all. I will be using jay lenos replica (if you look on YouTube there is a video of him unboxing it) also there are loads of YouTube videos of it in various colours.
  10. Hi all time to start this Christmas present
  11. OK so the decals on this went weird so masked it and Sprayed it myself.
  12. The moulding of the body had runs in it (almost as if the plastic had run) the tyres were the worst representation of rubber I've ever seen) there are countless other problems with the kit and it's all down to cheap manufacturering techs and cheap materials.
  13. No the revell ex protar kit (purely down to revells using the cheapest production and materials) as when italari release protar kits they are in another league.
  14. More done to the hot tub cabin. Those dors took 3 hrs to fits they didnt bind or catch anywhere (I'm sure when the weight of the glass is in them I will have to re adjust again) loads more to do yet but the bulk of it is done now.
  15. Hi all well its finished. Not a great kit but bought for a bargain price so I can't really complain its a lot of kit for the money I paid(even though the materials and quality are pretty rubbish) And the real 1/1 Ferrari engine is finished at work.
  16. Nearly done just the rear light and a few decals to add.
  17. Well they're done, given time I could have spent ages on them but they've got to fully cure then I've got to pack them back in the game and wrap it up. I'm pleased I got them done in time and I think to a standard an 8 Yr old will appreciate (even if she is a real brain box and way ahead of all the other kids in her class) seriously you should see her school reports (I'm especially proud of the statement of her school head saying "Megan's manners are impeccable" That girl is awesome and so kind.
  18. Well there are a few more done.
  19. Thanks Tom.
