Excellent detective work Gary, thanks....... and also thanks for the link Bill, which looks like the supplier. David

Thanks Gary...... it would be useful if he can remember! David

There's a lot going on in your workshops Pat, and everywhere you look there is something of interest...... just looked back at some of your previous pages, mainly because I opened page 4 instead of page 21, and noticed all sorts of little details that I had probably missed before. Marvellous stuff! David

Thanks for posting, Gary...... and Scott has done a wonderful job there. As well as finding the Corvette fascinating, I am also intrigued by the figure in the third photo.... where did he come from? Certainly, I could use a figure like that if I knew where to get hold of one. David

Figoni et Falaschi, Franay and Chapron...... all beautiful coach built motor cars, and you are getting to the most exciting point in the build. Looking great ! David

You are correct, Gregory Kluck...... the Minicraft Rolls-Royce was previously a Hubley promo, both in plastic. I have an original Hubley promo and many Minicraft kits, but I think the above topic is talking about metal scale model cars, so not the plastic ones. I believe the tooling has passed from Minicraft to China, but I may be wrong, and it is possible that Minicraft still own the tools. The company does still exist in Rockford, Illinois, USA. Don't know if this helps you at all, Greg Hasselbach..... just thought I would add what I know. Although I would be interested in old Hubley models, they would have to be Rolls-Royce..... sorry. David

This was also my first year end listing of builds, and yours are superb....... not all Cobras!...... I do like the silver Shelby on the back of the truck particularly. Have a great year in 2019 Ray....... David

All of your builds for 2018 are good Craig...... and my favourite would be the '68 Foose Firebird, as I like Pontiacs, like Foose and like '68 American cars. David

Three good builds Jacob and I like the Vanishing Point Challenger...... the faded white paintwork is just right. David

They are all good builds from you Ludwig, and it is hard to pick out a favourite...... for me, probably the '68 Cadillac convertible. I like the way you have displayed the photos in year order..... very organised and tidy! David

All nice builds that you have there Pete...... my favourite would be the blue Foose Cadillac....... clearly, you had a good year in 2018. David

Some very nice builds you have there Hugh...... and clearly, you have been very busy during 2018 ! David

Thank you Sonny from Essex, and yes, space is becoming quite a problem! - The Rolls-Royce scale model motor cars do demand a considerable amount of real estate. Also thank you to Anders from Denmark...... I am pleased to hear that you like the collection.... much appreciated. David

All good Curt.... number 3 gets my vote David

Nice bunch of builds you have there Trent. David

Some nice builds you have there Kevin....... well done for getting them done with limited time available. David

Thank you Curt...... your comment is much appreciated. David

Thank you Chris...... glad you like the builds! David

All nicely done builds Thomas...... the Maserati is quite an unusual kit and my favourite of yours would be the Corvette, which looks very realistic. I think the process of summarising your own builds for the past year is a good way of taking stock of what you have achieved, and then moving forward to your planned projects for the coming year. David

All your builds are nicely done Tony, and don't worry, you will get more completed during 2019..... just wait and see. David

Thanks for the comment Phil...... the vehicles I that need for the ongoing diorama project, and also the period of European kits are not the usual scale models that you see as often , you are right. David

All very nice builds Will....... my favourite would be the first photo, the Rothmans race car. David

Thanks Gary...... glad you like them! David

Thanks very much Peter...... the London bus does not count because I completed that build before the end of 2017, so it was more to show the smallest kit that I have built in 1:24 scale and the largest kit. There were 8 pieces for the Tamiya Vespa and just under 400 pieces for the Revell bus. The Talbots are French of course, the Mitsubishi is Japanese and the Henry Ford figures are American, so not all British ! ( but I know what you mean ). David

Nicely done builds Bill..... my favourite is the '65 Chevy Impala, with the white paint work and blue interior..... such a realistic engine in that one. David
