Curious, did you notice that the lower shock mounts are different from side to side, including both location and their construction. I wonder if that architecture is original to the 1911 car? Great progress, Model On!

You brought that incredibly detailed model, you spent Way too much for on line and spent 5 years getting every aspect of the rare 1:1 just right, to the model show with a shoe in for 1st place, when some Ham Handed Goof pointing out the interior detail puts hid finger through the windshield and as he pulls back drags your precious pride and joy off the table where you watch in horror as it explodes on impact with the floor sending a myriad of small, intricate hand made parts, scattering through the exhibit hall and under the feet of the advancing crowd!

Unfortunately you would need to go 1/16 and then you you would have a much greater selection of WW1 engines via model airways kits.

Outstanding details I love the Pipe fittings especially the reducers with that little rib and undercut on the small end just like the real ones. With the Rolls a custom roadster body would be cool. The switch actually works doesn't it?
