  1. Pardon my ignorance but what is the red car? Thanks steve
  2. Great touch with the oil dipstick! That's one to remember... steve
  3. Nice job! steve
  4. I discovered recently that I still have mine that I must have built, OOB, in the early 1970s. It is (brush) painted in bright blue with blue & white interior but is in bits in its original box. It seems to have just disintegrated but it is complete, with nothing broken. When I can, I will post some pics. One day, I will rebuild it. steve
  5. Excellent stance and fine choice of replacement parts. steve
  6. That's about it for me too. I build my model railways the same way. steve
  7. How about using 1/32 scale slot car wheels and tyres? These can be bought as spares for the likes of Scalextric models. Also stuff like mirrors. http://www.scalextric.com/uk-en/pit-lane/spares-accessories.html steve
  8. Superb! steve
  9. Aircraft first a teenager in 1960s, then cars. Mostly 1/32 scale Airfix until I discovered other makes later, such as AMT, MPC, Monogram, Pyro, Aurora, Lindberg, etc. Gave up in the late 1970s and did no modelling at all until l took up railway modelling in 1982. Getting back into cars again now although it is secondary to the trains. steve
  10. Nice work. Re the lack of flaring tool. How about trying a suitably sized ball bearing sat in the tube and the tapping it gently with a small hammer? Different sized ball bearings for different flares. steve
  11. That's wrong. HO scale is 1:87 not 1:64. steve
  12. How about amalgamating all the threads together and having just one named after the kit? Just a thought to make life easier... steve
  13. Very nice work Ilya! And welcome to the forum. steve
  14. Tom, I hope you're a patient man. I takes 3 months from ordering for it to be built and then delivered! Worry not, I will post pics in due course. steve
  15. Been to the Skoda dealer to work out a deal on a hew Yeti 4x4. Finalise the deal on Tuesday. It will be my first ever brand new car... steve
  16. Sadly, I don't think I have. I was just curious. All three of those cars are extremely beautiful and it is possibly a surprise no-one does either kits or resin bodies of them. Especially given the fame of the prototypes. steve
  17. Very impressive. steve
  18. ...to turn the new Revell/Monogram '29 into this? http://silodrome.com/1929-ford-dick-flint-roadster/ steve PS Straight Yes or No acceptable!
  19. Just taken delivery from Model Round Up of 2 x Revell/Monogram '29 A roadster kits. I may have overdone it by going for 2 examples but, well I can always move one on in due course. It won't be opened. Just wondered how many more of them there are in the UK... Cheers steve
  20. Very nicely done. steve
  21. It's funny, the vast majority of those cars wouldn't warrant a second glance in the UK or mainland Europe. The 7 and the Le Mans being the exception of course. steve
  22. Correct! steve
  23. I have 2 on the way from Model Round-Up, I've just been told... steve
  24. How about this one: steve
