Last of my summer haul

I agree, that us a goldmine!! the Rubber Duck mac is a horrible kit...send it my way as a relief?

Summer haul so far...couple more to come

Agreed, ramble away my friend Best thread on here for a while now

Wow how did I miss all this fun. Excellent project Love all the body versions, running gear and wings. I tried my hand at casting rear wings and louvres...NOT easy and certainly not as clean as the ones you show The Gulf Singer is my favourite so far

SOooo, what is next??

Saw that you did very well showing this beautiful beast this summer Congratulations, you certaly deserve it after all that hard work

Don’t mind doing it at all I will have to see if my silicone mould is still ok especially of the louvred grill Neck deep in a Bomber Build I have to finish before September at the mo as well

I did a spray of the Miami blue Splash paint on the weekend

There is a thread on here about them

Cheers to Gary and Snake..those kind of comments keep me motivated, thanks guys The paint is on and I love the result Colour is Miami Blue and she is going to finish as a crisp clean beach cruiser

YA good point It wasn't going to be this colour until I saw that paint. It won't pop quite as much but this is only a test mule project, will prime the VW white

Somehow this one snuck back onto my desk Well I wanted to try out the Splash Paints is really the reason...and to avoid a frustrating bomber I am building SO the rear deck is primed and black spoiler painted. Then I dropped it, twice and got a crack line where the whale connects to the deck Got the windshield frame re-cemented and one side fabricated. Then all in primer before some final touch ups We are going to go Splash Miami Blue

Getting set to paint tonight. The bottle says "ready to spray" so no thinner needed I take it Any tips before I fire it up??

Awesome!

Superb work

Interesting read guys Yes the internet has an influence for TRU downfall. The real killer was the BS corporate takeover and dumping a huge debt back onto the company are what killed it, not the internet. Their sales could not re-coup that huge debt load...nor where they expected to. I bet Bain Capital didn't lose a cent in any of the dealings because they manipulated the system to use other people's money and insulated themselves from risk. Good business, I guess?? No morals IMHO sacrificing workers The billion Bstards have taken over and are running amuck, carte blanche to do anything they want saying it is all "just business" rant over...well almost Sears USA parent Co. did a similar thing to Sears Canada. They sold off expensive real estate property in major Canadian centres and took the profits back to the States instead of re-investing into their Canada operations. Big bonuses and payouts to executives. You could then see the Sears Canada stores going down and down year by year.. poor service, stores shrinking, minimal stock and the Craftsman hardware stuff was especially pathetic so I stopped going. I am in large centre where there is a lot of other options. In rural Canada Sears was often the only retailer. Corporate greed in the name of "good Business"...sad and the workers and consumers suffer while others make their billions. It isn't offshore taking your jobs, it is all home grown greed.

Got my order today, all looks good, fast service Just have to find some time to fit them in the project queue

.....aaand I have two more things to make Thanks guys all this

Beautiful classic, really well done It is like Harry is back, this was his style too with perfect build and good photography Impressive

Really nicely done and super realistic

I like getting those kind of decals from eBay..have a few for Ferraris and such, some with metal logos. REALLY adds to a build's realism for very little $ Ya, go paddle shifters. My BMW auto can out shift me any day of the year.

Another awesome build from you...this looks really sweet I always look forward to see what you have built when I see your name pop up in the under glass

Awesome. I am sure his daughter is happy to send the build to someone who loves it I have three of Harry's builds myself and they hold a special place in my display

Beautiful , absolutely beautiful
