That's a serious looking kit and build Bruce. If the entire kit is like the wheels and tires, you've made a fantastic choice. I agree wholeheartedly with you the Miura was / is on of the finest cars ever made. Enjoy. Cheers, tim

First time checking out this thread Mike, great looking vehicle and details you're capturing. What did you make the luggage rack out of? Well done! cheers, tim

Hi Joe, I just wanted to say that I too am sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. Your mustang in blue caught my eye, but when getting caught up on your earlier posts, I came across the news. Best regards to you and your entire family, Tim

Thanks Jason, now that I'm finally back on the build you should see more frequent posts from me. cheers Today I got one upper control arm done. I've yet to part it off of course and I have the front of it to round off once it's separated. Next to it are the pair of "ball joint caps" as I'll call them for now. They'll be affixed to the control arm at the front of course. I never made these before so this was time consuming for me. I'll share a pic too of the real one upper control arm I was trying to replicate. Cheers, Tim

Great pic Ian.......like how you showed it next to your build. Kudos! tim

Boy do I like that pic of the cab on it.......this thing is STELLAR! Oh, and all the little bits and pieces ain't bad either...... ? cheers,tim

Hi Mark, well, it was fun catching up on your progress and I can get "lost" enjoying all the little details you've fabricated BUT, seeing the body in primer, even a partial shot, after fixing the door.........I gotta say that is just crisp looking. Fantastic as always. Tim

Thanks to JC & Dave and of course Francis for your comments........I was having some trouble posting so this pic is kind of a test to ensure that I can upload pics okay.........so far it seems okay. Cheers to all...........

Good morning Dave, I can't tell you how good it sat down to do these. I got to the point where I was wondering if I even remembered how to do things. But, just like riding a bike it came together pretty well. Thanks for posting and following along. Tim Bruce, yes sir, got my back, neck and other nonsense sorted finally. I won't be able to do as much per week as in years past I'm afraid but I can still keep moving things along thankfully and it's still FUN! cheers, tim Hey Brad, nice to hear from you as always and that you still follow the build. I'll be posting more regularly again should have some good things to share going forward. I'm going to go back to posting more "how I did that" kinds of posts too so as to share how I tackled some of these things in the future. Hopefully it will be of help & interest to others. Chris, ah, perseverance! Great word and really applicable for me. I was getting down a bit thinking I might never get back to finishing this build. I DO feel better now and had fun making those 2 simple parts. The upper & lower A-arms are going to be a bit more of a challenge I think. Stay tuned! cheers, tim

Surprise surprise....5 months later....I FINALLY sat down and made something. It's a modest post but I got the spindles done. The first pic is of a Strange Engineering spindle that was popular in the day that I did my best to replicate. Going to tackle the upper and lower A-arms next in brass. Once I have these bits together I'm moving onto the chassis finally. Thanks once more to all of you that have followed along and with your patience. Most appreciated, Tim

Mitchy, we really must see more pics of the car. That is breathtakingly gorgeous. Any other builds you've done or are working on to share? Again, more pics please...... cheers, tim

Challenging kits no matter how you slice it Chris. You're getting VERY good at tackling these projects. cheers, tim

WHAT a project. The attention to detail is beyond just fantastic. Some talented people here. Keep us posted on the progress. cheers, tim

Hi Ian, just checked on your progress, and like Francis its very cool to see it come together now. Appreciate your insights & tips you've shared along the way. cheers, tim

Hello Francis, you're making great progress sir. It's nice to see the engine in the car and shows how striking it is from any angle. You've got to be so excited at this point. Cheers to you! Tim

This really brings back memories Justin. The colors you picked really pop & I too can't wait to see it all come together. cheers, tim

Hi Tim, I'm only echoing the comments of others but I can't believe how cool this build is turning out. Your choice for the front fenders among many other features/designs you're going with. Your fabrication skills are great and I appreciate the tips you've been sharing as you go along. I'll be sure to follow along as well. cheers, tim

What a perfect looking build Chris. The paint, assembly and just "crispness" of the car are top notch. Congrats! Tim

Hi Chris, Engine is shaping up oh so nice on this one. I hope that hinge comes in soon cause I really want to see the other one completed. Both good builds and subjects! cheers, tim

What a great example of this car Bruce. Well done! cheers, tim

It's been far too long since I stopped by Charlie, but you never disappoint. I must say the pics you shared of the 1:1 car you were building were beyond belief. You've got some phenomenal talent sir. cheers, tim

Such clean work as usual JC! Love the weber set-up too. cheers, tim

Interesting concept Ian and would certainly enjoy following this one. cheers, tim

First visit here Matthew and it is a really good looking car. Looking forward to your next updates. cheers, tim

So much goodness here Francis. I was surprised to see you got to some color and can't wait to see what you do with truck. Best to you sir, Tim
