  1. Shipping will be $25.95
  2. A little more Bare Metal foil done....
  3. Very nice clean build.....
  4. There's definitely molded in the rear lens, as these are early shots, they could well be supplied as a decal, as the rear black stripes for the rear trim between the lamps are supplied as decals in the 68, it looks like it has been painted in this shot.
  5. Wheels fitted to the axles, I'm glad to report that all four Wheels touch the ground at the same time....
  6. in a 1960's episode of the Saint, this episode is supposed to be based in East Germany, in one scene you can see the Saint driving a Skoda 1000MB, then it drives into a wooded area,and then comes out as an earlier Octavia, then turns back into a 1000MB when he gets to the border
  7. Coming soon from Tamiya
  8. Revell Land Rover tyres are really superb, although there's no sidewall markings,which is pretty normal these days, the way they've molded them means there's no mold line around the middle of the tread, the centre webbing is easy to cut out using a set of sharp sprue cutters, the wheels simply pop in.
  9. Another one winging it's way to me.....
  10. Due to be released in the Autumn (Fall) both have got some new parts as well as some very nice photo etch parts
  11. Welcome aboard Gareth, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.
  12. TV series over here called Secret Army, based in Brussels during WW2 the story is about the escape lines for shot shown British airmen getting back to England, in one scene there's a bakers van, a Citroen 2cv Fourgonette, which wasn't manufactured until 1951.
  13. Painted the wheel fronts in Land Rover limestone, clearcoated and the centre hubs, wheel nuts and tyre valve picked out using Tamiya flat black
  14. I'm going to be using VHT flat black, it has the correct look to it for a factory finish, you may see them in a rich shiny black, but that more likely because they've had some trim restorer applied This is what I'm aiming for
  15. Luckily I didn't put much base coat over the wheel arch trim, hopefully it should be easier to mask them off using Bare Metal foil
  16. Very nice build, I'll be starting mine soon.....
  17. Before putting the bodyshell back into the plastic tub,I thought I'd do a dry fit with the chassis and interior, there won't be much glue needed to fit them together
  18. Superb clean build....
  19. Another superb build from you, lovely clean build.....
  20. After building the 68, I'm going to have to get one of these.
  21. I built one of these many years ago when Aoshima first released it for a friend who worked in R&D at the Land Rover factory in Solihull, he was part of the team that designed the air suspension, I've been waiting for it to be re-released so I can build one for myself, managed to find one at a decent price.
  22. I'll think I'm done with the polishing on the one side now....
