It is a Series 3 109 inch, without the Safari roof

Very nice build, but the door tops should be painted in body colour and not aluminium

Very nice, looks like most trucks of the time, hard worked, and never washed, I was thinking of getting one of these, but the longer flat bed, what they like to build ?

Opel Manta

Very nice bug, never seen this kit before, colour suits it well ...

Got some photo's of it somewhere, but it was a 1969 Hillman Imp Super like the one in the photo, but in Polar white

Brilliant, superb detail, looks real to me !

I've just used Alclad chrome for the first time, pretty impressed with the stuff, I've left them to dry out for a week, but I will probably leave them a little longer, as I've been told the paint takes a while to dry out, if this is true or not, I don't know. I followed the advice and primered the bumpers first, followed by a few coats of gloss black cellulose, then a few coats of Alclad, sprayed on at around 20 psi, if you don't have any luck, I will do them for you, as I still have the door handles and boot handle to do on the Mini.

I've been using this for many years, (Walthers Solvaset)available at most hobby shops that sell model railroad stuff,

Very nice job, good luck in the 2010 competitions.

My Daily driver The weekend and good weather toy

Superb job, cracking paint job, haven't built a truck in age's, you've just got my interest back with this one !

Looking forward to seeing more on this, the last photo of the red Aston (573 NOJ) was registered in Birmingham, the next largest town to me, and it was first registered the year i was born ...

That's one very cool looking bug, colour really suits it,

I have just had to do the same with the Austin Mini I'm building, I modified the mini Cooper bumpers but needed to de-chrome them as i'm going to spray them with Alclad, i used Caustic soda crystals mixed with cold water, didn't take long for the chrome to pop right off, i use the same stuff to strip paint

Very nice, can't wait to see this one finished ..

You'll have fun with that one, cracking kit, built a few of them, and still got a few on the go,

Some very nice work going on there ...

In December 1960 Triumph was bought by Leyland Motors Ltd with Donald Stokes becoming chairman of the Standard Triumph division in 1963, Triumph then merged with British Leyland Motor Corporation (BMC)in 1968.

Very nice Diorama, looks very realistic ...

very realistic weathering, what did you use for the light bulbs ?

Mainly ebay for me, these's a few online store i shop at 1/ http://www.modelhobbies.co.uk/ 2/ http://www.emodels.co.uk/ For tools and spares i go to http://www.shesto.co.uk/ We used to have a model shop about 1.5 mile away, but that closed down many years ago, never did sell many car kits, even though they got asked to stock them, they said "There was no call for them" ?? the next one we have is around 7 mile away, and never has a great selection of car kits, so i only pop there now and again, to be met by the same un-helpful staff, thank god for the internet

I use Methylated Spirits for thinning and cleaning up of epoxy resin, works a treat

I usually dry them on some paper tissue first to remove most of the paint, then give them a good wash in Isopropyl Alcohol, then rinse in clean water, then reshape the bristles and then just leave to dry

Yes, some over cleaners do work, as there main ingredient is ..... Caustic Soda, Mr Muscle was a very good one over here, until they weakened the mixture
