  1. Great color choices. Very well built brother.
  2. Brilliant Lyle, just brilliant!
  3. Holy Schnikies!
  4. Geez... It looks 1:1 to me
  5. A Triumph!
  6. The wheels and steering wheel are the two issues I have with this edition. I'll raid my parts box for alternatives.
  7. I have considered MFH but the 1/20 cost more than the Tamiya and full detail kit. I have the paint and the carbon fiber and tobacco decals for the same price. And it will be more detailed in the end. I get inspired to start it often, but I'll start it once my new hobby room is complete I am currently remodeling.
  8. Beautiful work on this complicated beast. The paint is especially nice. I have the full detail TS kit to go along with mine. I wanted to go 1/12 but it was just too much money. I went 1/20.
  9. I just purchased one of these. Great color choices. I wish it came with stock parts but no biggie. Nicely done.
  10. Cooler than the other side of the pillow TB.
  11. Epic Dio! So much to absorb, I may edit this down the road with more
  12. Seriously cool design. The rear is particularly striking. Great finishes.
  13. Those cracks seem shallow and surface as Ace said... But they get toasty I know. That's the reason they are there in the first place. I am willing to wager they are expensive and since they are a racing rotor all the more so. What surprises me is not carbon.
  14. Stavanzer and I had a great trade. It is one of probably 20 for me in the 15 years I've been here. Strike that and make it 17 years here! How time has moved...
  15. Pecker Stone? Honestly......
  16. Saw this today. Best to just plan a trip to the bank into your day like we used to. Remember, convenience has its price.
  17. The German grey is my fave scheme on these. Super tight builds.
  18. Great car a superb build. I would be proud to say it was mine.
  19. Really great. Yeah, Stokes is a masterpiece no question. But you nailed it quite nicely. Not sure I would attempt such a kit. I even chickened out of my Huayra kit and sold it.
  20. Thanks for the comprehensive answer there Bob. I worked almost exclusively on Benz for 16 years and if this came into the shop I would have been dumbfounded. Actually I would have called and old friend who has since passed. He worked at Mattie VW and Viti Benz for what seemed like 100 years. He helped me when a 300SL came into my shop, I am certain he would have been a help with one of these. Although why one of these would be anywhere near my shop...... But saying that, why a 300SL came in is also one of those moments. Thanks for the history lesson and tech tip.
  21. Great projects. I hope they come out as you have envisioned them.
  22. TS-53 RULES! As said, it looks great on almost anything. Gonna be awesome!
