  1. Austin Marina,they were always a Morris over here.The Spridget was just a toy for Phil,he bought it after coming home from Iraq! my dad owned a 'fleet' of Rover P6s in the 70s. They were great cars to travel in as kid,the seperate seats in the back were brill as a sprog,we would do many trips on vacation and they would just eat the miles up.
  2. That reminds me of a friends 64 Midget ( a cali re-import..) with a 1275 engine,man that wee critter was tail happy even in the dry!
  3. Might combine this... With this,the Chevy body is a write off and it has a 427. No idea on this but it might...be a donor for a Mini.
  4. Going back to Woodstock man,hope that Wavy gravy is not still in charge of security!
  5. Very nice,there used to be a taxi pickup nr Croydon years ago.
  6. The tape was Tamiya but I suspect the humbrol silver base........
  7. This has gone pear shaped,the masking was fine but the green lifted badly!
  8. Thanks David,it will be sprayed tomorrow and the roof will be gloss black and the side stripe stainless steel.The clear plastic is household food wrap clingfilm over here,saran wrap your side of the pond?
  9. Sprayed the interior David Piper green. The chassis is sprayed matt black. Meanwhile the shell is being masked for a second colour - it is not quite ready yet though..
  10. I had and built the sl and TR7 and still have the 635 bimmer in the stash!
  11. The green went on ok(ish) It looks ok,next will be masking the sides for perhaps stainless steel.
  12. Fancy doing a wagon,but with twist. It is done in Humbrol chrome silver but that is only a base colour. The engine bay is nicely detailed. The colour? it is a Kwacker candy green,it has scope for going pear shaped though...
  13. US Parking garage,UK Multi storey car park. US licence plate,UK number plate.
  14. Cheers,get one it is nice. Got the bed done,lights in bumper on and roll bar fitted. The bed is not secure yet hence the wiggle with the bumper... But the cab is glued in place.
  15. Got the engine painted and fitted. Weathered/rusted up the headers with some powder dipped in white spirit (stodart solvent?) This stuff. How it looks now.
