I like that. Red sets these cars apart from the usual run-of-the-mill cars.

Wow! Awesome Build of a very correct car.

What a great build! The Colour you chose is perfect for the car. The finish is excellent as well.

From the tiny images on the box bottom in the Round2 video, it looks like the same simplified version from the last run of the kit. Heads and Intake in one casting, so no engine build options. Since the one piece engine lower casting is back in the kit, I'd suggest a curbside build. Or borrow the engine from AMT's '64 Impala.

I love The Hu! Great Throat Singing, and Rockin' Metal.

Ah, I wondered where that came from. Now I know. Thanks, Dave.

I'm thinking Moon Mixer.

Now THATs Entertainment!!

The Orkneys. How neat. My wife and I have always wanted ti visit there.

Oh. The Shetland Islands? I've watched some great videos of Babs online. Alan

Cool, Mr Budge. Do you ever get to see "Babs"?

Thanks, Dave. Time will tell.

Wow! What a great build. The tires look especially good. They have the grey look of real rubber. Your weathering is Superb, as well. Looks like one of many trucks you see in the deserts in the Southwest USA.

Dang! You sure know how to build 'em, Uelder! That is one sharp ride. Great job on the stripes.

I hope HPI Guy gets one. His review will be the decision maker on whether I buy one or not.

Sounds like a great Idea to me.

I still have a set of brand new Model T plugs in the box, in my garage. Bought them new in 1988. The have pipe thread, threads on them. The whole car is just anvil simple to wrench on. I miss mine to this day. It was a 1926 Speedster, with a Rootlieb body. It had red wire wheels and no fenders. It was my daily driver from 1988 to 1990.

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!

What a Magnificent project! All emotion and no real practical use. I'm glad Bentley is doing this. A "Halo Car" for the Ultra-rich. And It will increase the chances of seeing a real Blower Bentley in the flesh, so to speak. Ettore Bugatti is supposed to have dismissed them as "Thinly Disguised Trucks"

Looks better and better with each update, Mike.

Coke themed Space 1999 Eagle is the kit I'm holding out for. Or Coke Tanker.

AFAIK, one issue of the Revell 69, a snapper molded in yellow or red, IIRC had the SS Hood you seek. It is a rare kit, and since it is a snapper, not well regarded. Larry Greenberg did a review of the kit in this magazine when it first cane out. The hood was separate, so a relatively easy swap to the glue kit.

It is INDEED a very pretty box. I feel sorry for the guys who buy it, and discover that the kit is only So-So. The more Thought I've given it, the more I'm coming to disagree with Round2's policy of releasing sub-optimal kits. This kit and the '67 GTO coming quickest to mind. Better to let these tools die in the vaults, rather than keep them coming and turning off more generations of customers.

Good Show. Your colour choice is inspired on that Rig.

So, are there anymore pics of this kit out, or are we just waiting for somebody to be the first to order one?
