Very nicely done.

Excellent craftmanship.

Thank you Christian for the links and the background information. I am a frequent visitor to diecast24blogspot and can highly recommend it and the links which they post there. So far most of my purchases have come from eBay and are from China or France with and without the brochures but the prices on Journax seem very reasonable depending on shipping of course. It is interesting to note that they have listed the Le Grandi Ferraris. Some of these are now being issued as BBurago fortunately. I have the Dino, SWB, TDF, and Daytona competition #22 in the BBurago releases. I thought at first the Daytona was just a poor decal job but then discovered it is actually pretty accurate for the 1970 Daytona entry, except for the wheels which need more offset. One other thing to be aware of is diecast coming from Europe now have a child safety screw in the base. It is a screw head with a triangle indentation instead of the Phillips or straight head screw and can be a bear to unscrew. EU safety screwdrivers are available if you are going to be ordering frequently.

Outstanding! You are to be congratulated for your imagination, craftmanship, and the inspiration you provide to us all.

Oh what a sweet build. I built one as the Le Mans white #17. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Very well done, congratulations on a super build.

Thank you Bob for the info.

Mike Quarterman just told me that resin casters Paul Fisher of Fisher Models and Joe Vondracek of Quikskins have lost everything in the California fires except for their lives.

I like the way this is going and the interior is looking really good.

Is this build going to cause friction in the Cobra cabinet? Actually with all the replica fiberglass bodies floating around I would be surprised if one did not end up on an old Bronco chassis.

Nicely done.

My collection envelope is more in the 50s and 60s but these are very tempting. Nice job on the Welly.

I don't know what else to call it but gorgeous.

Really looking good, I love these saves. Please keep us posted.

Thank you for the link Pat.

Rarely do I see these built up and you have taken it to another level.

It really looks great, nice job.

OK, I found the Fujimi Garage Set #3 on eBay with the vintage looking bicycle. I also found on Shapeways a WWII era bike. I am interested in the vintage bicycles. Sorry did not want to highjack your thread with bicycles but I do appreciate your help.

Thanks for the tips. I found the Fujimi set but it is odd that a vintage style bike would be included with modern style tools. I will check on Shapeways.

Very creative save, well done. Is that a bicycle in the back? Would love to see more of it. Been looking for one.

I like it. Do you have more pictures?

Very nice builds on the Corvettes. I especially like the Mako Shark.

In the 1950s my family would drive to Ashtabula harbor on lake Erie and from an overlook watch the Huletts in action. Thank you for posting the photos and bringing back the memories.

Super nice.

The Wheelhorse tractor is one of my favorites.
