Tks again folks. Tom, I cut it myself but it is around 1mm wide. I did use black however I recall reading somewhere it should be a verry dark blue. Regards Dave

Tks for the kind words guys & gals. It's the Fujimi kit, the blue is actually Triumph Powder Blue (according to the GT40 forums this is the actual colour Gulf used) and the black stripe is auto pin stripe tape (sorry folks, cheated on that one) then clear coated the lot. There are a few issues with it, particularly around the roundels, could have done better. Ed, still have a Fisher 2F to build, hope you like it when built. Regards Dave B

Just an out of the box build of GT 40 P1075 albeit with the stripes sprayed, using auto acrylic, in lieu of decals. Tks for looking Dave B

Tks guys, appreciate the comments Dave B

A box stock build of the Fisher 512M. Didn't try to match the yellow with the decal supplied so that is painted. They never quite turn out as well as planned but it has finished up respectable. Tks for looking Dave

That's a nice conversion to a 'D' Dann, congratulations Dave B

Tks guys, appreciate the kind words. Dave B

Great build Hanabi, I have the Heller version of this one built, but it is probably 30 years old!!! Dave B

Just a quick box stock build of Fujimi's Chaparral 2D. Sorry about the pics, a little glare off the white. Tks for looking Dave B

Tks guys, a little overwhelmed by the response to this subject, never thought it would be so popular!!! Dave, I have an MGF in the garage, no accounting for taste!! Jonathan, yes it's an old Gunze kit. Dave B

Hi All, Except for the wheels this is box stock build. It's based on a Sprinzel Sprite I saw in a shed many years back. Tks for looking Dave B

Hi Cliff, the Scarab looks great, nice build, build. I tried to pick one up on EBay a few years back but could never win one. Regards Dave B

Tks again Dave B

Tks guys. Hi Bruce, These are 1/24 models manufactured by J.R.Reynolds (UK) back in the late 50's & early 60's. Dave B

Tks guys Dave B

Tks guys, appreciate the kind words. Dave B

Hi again Cliff. That is a neat build of a difficult kit, I know having built one. Dave B

They are great builds Cliff, I particularly like the little Cooper 500, I copied a mate's kit when he had it pulled apart for a rebuild (body, wheels & engine only) in resin and have yet to build it. Thanks for posting. Dave B

Using a Revell kit I built this as the UDT Laystall RHD car (Chassis 3505 GT). I used a set of photo etched wire wheels from the parts box. I did purchase a RHD conversion from HRM at the asme time as I bought a Maserati 450S (yet to build) but it wasn't until I received the package that I realised the RHD conversion was for the Gunze Sanyo GTO and was not useable. So it was back to the drawing board and out with the X-Acto saw. Pretty happy with the outcome, decals by Patto. Tks for looking Dave B

I was lucky to pick this up new around 35 years ago and did a basic build, no roundels or numbers, merit wheels, etc. As I collected a quantity of Herb Deeks photo etched wire wheels I decided to rebuild it as a look alike (wrong bodywork) of Stan Jones's (world Champion Alan Jones's dad) car which I saw race at Longford. Apart for the racing numbers, photo etched wire wheels and some basic interior pieces it is pretty much out of the box. Tks for looking Dave B

This is the Aston I picked up at the same time as the Jag. Once again I fitted headlight buckets, vacformed headlight covers, basic interior with passenger seat (also in the D type which I forgot to mention), resin wire wheels & resin tyres. Both the D type & the Aston have vacformed screens I made as he originals were broken. Tks for looking Dave B

Hi all, I picked this up along with aAston DB3S, Alfa 158 and 2 toy Lotus 15's (see previous post) about 2 years ago. I have just got around to rebuilding it with headlight buckets & vacformed headlight covers. I used a set of resin D type wheels from the Linberg D Tks for looking Dave B

Nice build of a difficult kit Jeff, I know having built one 30 odd years ago myself Dave B

That is really nice Dave B

Karsten the Kraftsman!!! What more can I say Dave
