  1. I've had the Goodwood Revival on my bucket list for years, but every time it's on I've been busy with other work.
  2. Revell in Germany have stopped production of this kit, and are not sending out any of the kits they have in their warehouse.
  3. Same tooling using light grey styrene
  4. It's not a problem with the tooling, for some reason there's a problem with the red styrene they used, I've also heard (unofficially) that Revell are re-tooling the bodyshell to fix the windscreen fault.
  5. Very interesting, I'll be following....
  6. Very nice build, every time I see one of these built, I go looking for one, still haven't found one this side of the pond.
  7. Amt re-released it, not sure what year, but I don't think it was too long ago
  8. Rear axle and front suspension dry fitted into place, the front springs were glued onto to the suspension frame, as they had a tenancy to fall out when dry fitted.
  9. Not a great done today, just building up the back axle and removing a few mould and join lines.
  10. Good news on the replacement bodyshell for the Lindberg 61 Impala, Round 2 are sending me one, $25 including shipping to the UK.
  11. Managed to get a little bit of work done on this one, interior is just dry fitted, engine glued together, I'll clean up the join lines on the engine/gearbox tomorrow
  12. In Revell's defence, this kit retails for over half the price a Tamiya version would cost
  13. No, these were pre-production parts they sent me, Revell have halted production of this kit to sort out the problems with the body, Revell Germany are not sending out anymore kits, this has also delayed the release of the Revell U.S version.
  14. Received these this morning from Revell in Germany, these are parts left over from their pre-production mouldings before they started using the red styrene, not a sign of sink marks anywhere on these parts.
  15. Received a few packages for Revell in Germany, a replacement body and decals for the Golf GTI, Windshield frame for the E Type that was broken in the box, plus a few body parts moulded in light grey, no signs of sink marks anywhere.
  16. Very nice clean build....
  17. Me too, I haven't built a truck model since the mid 1990's, this one looks superb.
  18. Popped a bid in on Ebay and forgot about it, so I've now got another Range Rover.
  19. Still unable to get any airbrushing done, and I've caught up with my writing, so I thought I'd make a start on this one, i bought one kit,which sadly arrived with a broken and distorted bodyshell, I'm trying to see if Round 2 can help me out with a replacement,as they've not long re-released this kit under the AMT banner, I've tried the bonnet on the body from the other kit I've got, the photos show the difference, I've decided that I'll be painting this one in Honduras red metallic.
  20. X2, haven't ordered from them for a while, but before the Covid, I'd get packages from them in around 5 days, great service.
  21. The only one i can remember is the Mk1 Ford Cortina estate
  22. That's mine, built a few years ago, I've still got the 356C wheels if there any good to anyone
  23. Volkswagen Pearl White L87
  24. X2, I haven't built a Heller kit for many years, although I've got quite a few in the stash, never had a problem building them.
