    That's a great build, all the more so for the time you must have spent doing extremely accurate weathering. I couldn't do it, I'll stay the easy route and do shiny!! Dave B

    Matt, another great build using a basic kit. The Vanwall and Mercedes are the only 2 Merit GP cars I don't have. They're great starting points. I assume the actual car had a yellow nose cone as the one depicted on the mag cover appears orange? Dave B

    Trial fit of the injection system, still need to make the injectors so it at least resembles the Spica injection. Dave B

    Tks for the encouragement guys. Helmut, love the blue one!! Dave B

    Pierre, you don't build 2nd best, you made the only choice. Dave B

    Good luck Rich, I know you'll do it justice. As aside I've been modelling from around the same time, first kit was the Merit Lancia Ferrari. Dave B

    That's not a problem, just back to square one. Come on Pierre, like me you love it!!! Dave B

    Tks Andrew and everyone else. Rich, I have the Otaki kit but I must have built it like 40+ years ago and it shows!! Dave B PS I also have the Tipo 33 book but there is not a lot on the Stradale, heaps of the net.

    Finally got the glass vacformed, the windscreen took about 5 tries before I was happy with it. The C100 is now ready to clear coat so the end is in sight. Dave B

    That's a huge improvement Helmut, can't wait to see it painted and decaled. Dave B

    Ok, I'm going to TRY and do a Pierre. Whoever drew the file hasn't got it quite right. The sides are too shallow and I think the injection is too far back towards the rear axle line so rightly or wrongly I've started my mods. Dave B

    Went up to my mate Phil's for a social visit yesterday and came away with this. I did buy the file for this and a DB4GT Zagato a couple of months back but haven't worried about it as I'm still working on the C100. Something else to play with!! Dave B

    Just received this packet of what I use as injection trumpets. Look much better than the printed item Dave B

    Hi Pierre, you've done a brilliant job with the glass house and you don't have to worry about the front and rear glass. Excellent!! Do you have vacform capability? Dave B
  15. Dave B
    Yes Rich, that's the one I'd want to build. Dave B

    Getting there. First coat of white acrylic just to identify the faults. Dave B

    Beautiful Claude, you build exceptional salt flats models, just love checking out the details. Dave B

    Having followed this on WIP that's a great build Ken, congratulations. Dave B

    That looks great Rich, I've always liked the first Chaparral but I'd have to build it without the rear fins. Perhaps I should look for a download file!! Dave B
  20. Dave B
    Phew, you had me worried there for a moment Pierre. Dave B
  21. Dave B
    That's pretty speccy Ken, looking forward to seeing it finished. Dave B
  22. Dave B
    Nice build, I'm glad it wasn't only me that had an issue with the rear frame. Dave B
  23. Dave B
    Helmut, this is looking really really good!! I wish I had thought of using that decal as I have the kit, didn't even realise it was in it. Dave B
  24. Dave B
    Just a test

    Looking good Matt, you might want to have it moved it to WIP? Dave B
