  1. Lovely 917. Cannot go wrong with gulf colours. I should probably get one soon. Gt40 or 917 though...
  2. I'll certainly take you up on that offer as feel the Camaro could be a good car to try it on. Once I'm nearer to a painting stage I would gladly receive some tips. Beautiful builds both the cobra and the corvette. Had a look at few of your builds. Mind blown.
  3. I'd love a Lola t70, love watching them in Masters Endurance races here in Europe. Can only imagine a can am race with lots of them
  4. Boot lid cut out, Door cards split into 3 components and the arm rests removed. Dash has had several unneeded components cut out. Next step doors and start mocking up a roll cage.
  5. Stunning job Seeing your brushed finish makes me think I should try it as, spraying in a flat is a nightmare.
  6. Are you sure you didn't break in, just shrink the real car down and put it in a bag? Looks so good the fit and finish
  7. That's a mean looking pinto
  8. Provisionally I'd like to build number 11 cobra but I also like the little red mg. Won't be till after Christmas before I can pick up another kit as Camaro is taking up my funds for parts at moment. Will let you know as soon as I have a kit in hand
  9. Looks great, is everything built from the drawings?
  10. Love a safari rally car, this looks great
  11. That's a beautiful model, very nice
  12. That ended up being very useful Ordered a few different bits, some just as generic spares. But I've ordered 3 different sizes or American racing wheels 15x8, 15x10 for front and 15x14 for rear, should help work out the stance and things.. Ordered various small additional detail parts and the 67 body kit. Going to investigate the spoon idea first. Thanks for the tip
  13. I've just had a look,may order a set to see whether be a good base to work from noticed a few other parts that may be useful too thank you
  14. That's a nice 934! Hope to do one of these justice one day.
  15. That could work. I've not yet ordered a set yet as few options most from USA so working out if ordering the wheels from some the eBay sellers is worth it or if I can find a cheap kit for similar price. I'll have a think but will let you know, thank you for the offer
  16. I'm currently looking for some suitable torq Thrust rims for my project. I can find a few on eBay (I'm UK based) but are there any kits people think could make good donners or after market sets. I'm think 15 inch rims, width I think could be added removed if needed (sure could think of way to do it). Width front I think will be 8/10 with the rears 10/12? But thinks may be case of eyeballing what looks right
  17. Yeah the flares will be a challenge. Going to use a small tea light/lighter to warm the arch and then push and roll the arch. Thinking a spoon or metal ball bearing.
  18. Thanks Steve, Ambitious indeed but I'm going to take my time, and if need be will build things to practice ideas for this car. So it may lead to a few more smaller quicker builds. Rookie Error already, 1 Camaro has ended up at my parents address the other side of the country but still 1 heading to the correct place. When it gets here will start tidying up the body and work out what changes need to be made to match the real car
  19. Tesla is a very visually challenged design. Front nose looks a lot better with that reshape
  20. That's a very complex livery, looking forward to see what it comes out like. Purple looks good
