Sorry Jordan, I forgot to post the measurements The wheels+tires have a 45mm diameter The spoke wheels are 30 mm diameter rim to rim with a 1mm flange for the wheel to seat

I think I stole that idea from your Pocher build I used a metal duct tape and am surprised how sturdy it is
-
Over a nice quiet Christmas afternoon, I added a dipstick and an oil line to the lhs Dipstick is brass and stretched styrene sprue...needs a little MG decal Made a little cardboard stand for easier handling of chassis and body

Your build looks good so far, I agree the 1/16 scale is fun and a bit easier on the old eyes This looks like a good kit; I might get one, chop the roofline and hot rod it up........or not as I have dug a huge hole of kits to make Cheers
-
Your awesome paint work absolutely screams out in these pics.....from shiny to weathered, you nailed it
-
There are so many classic early cars they could re-release, especially in the 1/16 scale I bought this kit Christmas eve $94 CAD....hope to do it up to near Harry's calibre
-
You are so welcome, Merry Christmas to you and yours Prayers for your wife's swift recovery ps: I bought my Alfa K73 today......will start a thread when it gets here Thank you so much for your help
-
Lovely leather, wood and chrome in that pic of the real one Floored by how fast this is coming together
-
Oh Cato, such sad news I wish both of you well and a fast recovery; models can wait This is the season for miracles, best wishes for the holidays

I don't want to derail your build here but the mention of lexan windows is interesting, like to her what you do I spent the last 30 min searching how to make acetate windows here and google Some use plastic from bottles or clear sheet plastic; no real definite vids or anything I have a small dental vacuuform machine we use for sports guards and such. I can easily get clear acrylic of various thicknesses but would need to make a heat resistant blank to mould on Hmmm, I bet you do something simple and brilliant

I respect that no nonsense, no fiddling, get down to business and build attitude You are master of accenting what is visible and important while weeding out the trivial non-visible that most of us get stuck on Cudos

I love seeing someone use their brain and skill and come up with parts rather than using a wallet and buying PE parts Very impressed
-
Coming along nicely Very classy gold and chrome with a hint of red in the interior. Looks good! You are in warp speed compared to my donkey speed builds

Haven't posted much progress, so let's have a peek at the engine Block colour to match body paint all Tamiya Heat wrap on exhaust is painted hockey tape for a Canadian flavor Trying to make some Weber carbs....this is try #3 with brass and aluminum tubing and plastic One of the members here was a wealth of MG info in the lost thread I have an MGTC restoration book he suggested on route from Amazon for Christmas Thanks for looking
-
Ahh yes, this may be my Magnum Opus....great work or great headache
-
It is a grand touring Alfa k73 in pretty rough shape I would never have touched it if not for you guys and your insight and help Will do a thread if I get her Thanks my friend
-
You guys are great, those instructions are super helpful I have a weird affinity for rescuing lost kits and making something out of nothing But the Pochers are so complicated, expensive and BIG The instruction manual is a keystone for me, thanks a ton for that We shall see! Offer made
-
Love this car in that paint scheme You have done it proud
-
Wife may shoot me Both kits are selling as is, one without box and instructions! Me very chicken

That is cool!
