Thanks for all the comments, i've had this on the go for some time, i have only just come back to it, i try to keep my building as clean as i can, and the BMF took me some time to get right the first i used it, but now i find it much better that trying to paint trim in chrome silver paint. I have now been talked into trying one of the Fujimi Mini's, although it's a curbside kit, i will do as much detail as possible.

Built these a few years ago, now working on two of the Tamiya Austin Coopers Both were built out of the box, apart from putting Minilite wheels on instead of the kit supplied, Non factory Cosmic MK1's, all chrome inside and out was done using BMF, both were sprayed using factory colours, Island Blue & Old English white, and Almond green & old English white.

If you want to produce a 65 Cooper, you will need to sand off the safety boss off the doors, as pre' 66 didn't have these, a simply modification. Geoff

Could be wrong, but the tractor unit looks real, however the trailer looks to be a model, some work with photoshop might have gone on ?? Geoff

Just the front indicstors, rear lights and a few badges and decals to add, then it's finished ..... Geoff

Here's a few photo's of my latest build, out of the box Tamiya Austin Mini Cooper, apart from the BMF and the drilling out of the wheels, everything else is pretty much out of the box, paint was done using Cellulose auto paints, and polished out using Mequires auto polish. Geoff
