Looks good George, I am currently building the Le Man's C2 Corvette. Dave B

Hi folks. Trevor, the wheels are pe's from Gunze Santo for the 250TR. I bought three sets and a mate poured some urethane into a mould I gave him for the tyres. Kurt, I left the bumpers off and added the brake cooling ducts in the lower valance, this contributed to the nose breaking when clean off the old auto acrylic. Dave B

Lucky this old girl made it onto the forum!! I undercoated it with auto acrylic and sprayed it white with a blue stripe ala the NART car, looked really good. I then shot it with auto clear and ended up with a pink 250 with a blue stripe. As it was moulded in red plastic I should have known better, but I thought auto acrylic primer would have sealed it!! I then decided to paint it black but the first coat crazed so it went out of the 'to build' cupboard to the 'dead shed' out the back. I then read an article about stripping paint and it reminded me of the use of brake fluid as a stripper so, nothing ventured, nothing gained, it was partially emerged in fluid. Sure enough with a little effort the layers auto acrylic came of, but being an old brittle kit I managed to break the nose in about 4 places. Nothing a bit of additional styrene and putty couldn't fix. Anyway, I opted for an iridescent dark grey which suited the dark blue interior (as per the original plan being the NART car) and it has turned out acceptable. Tks for looking. Dave B

Nice build George. Dave B

Ken, your Europa on steroids is fantastic, I love it!! Dave B

Very nice Gary. Dave B

Great build Brendan, love this car particularly in Silk Cut colours. I recall seeing a resin version on eBay some years back but was never able to win one Dave B

Nice build and great photos Urs. Dave B

Tks Gary, they are impressive Dave B

Great builds Gary, and thank you Rex for posting. I assume they are all 1/43, could you advise manufacturers perchance. Are there any Provence Moulage amongst them? Dave B

That's a great clean build Rodrigo , lookls good. Dave B

That's an exceptional build of a problematic kit Matt, well done Dave B

Great build Joe, looks really good. Dave B

That looks great Rich. Dave B

TKS guys, appreciate the comments. Dave B

I thought Chrysler bought into Simca at one time. Regards Dave B

Just finished my last unbuilt Fisher resin. I love the Matra and after hearing 2 Matra 670C's flat out at Phillip Island a few years back I was glad I had one to build. The blue, green and white is all auto acrylic and the wing is bare metal foil. Great build but had a couple of problems as I had failed to completely remove the release agent and the paint on the rear deck bubbled after the clear coat so I had to strip that area and repaint it!! Added a few minor details but otherwise as per the kit Any it looks OK with my other Le Mans cars. Tks for looking Dave B

That is a really nice build Steve. A set of photo etched wires would really set it off. I'm not sure if the Herb Deeks wires would be large enough in diameter though. Dave B

Nice job Phil. Apart from the Wills Finecast TD I am not aware of any in 1/24th Dave B

Looks great Matt, have always liked the Silhouette. Dave B
