Yes sir I agree. For the price something’s should be worked out. We are modelers but they are business men. Most of the time the two get in the way. There is a balance of making a profit and what modelers want. I see a modelers side, but the making of these are very difficult. There are so many arguments on this. Big car manufacturers are the same way. What designers want and what accounting says , a settlement has to be made somewhere. It’s incredible that with so many people that the project gets off the ground.

Agora 1/8 Lamborghini Miura. Out of the box. Or boxes. The car is a sexy car. The build is not for the shake and bake crowd. You have to modify a lot of things on this build. But the result is worth it. Hope you like.

Thank you sir. My right knee might not need replacement if I use this thing. Been riding as much as possible And the doctor said if I do need a replacement that the operation will go a lot smoother. So here I ride. Some pics of the trucker river.

I would like to say something about agora, as far as the big kits go, the company has their act together. Liam sincerely cares about the company. And my friend Mark is their new USA liaison.

I definitely understand. It will take awhile but all of these will eventually be full kits. Some are already complete kits. I think the jag, cobra 427 and the super snake are full kits. And they are expensive. Not for everyone. If you really like the subject, and can afford it, should go for at least 1. These are the center stage in my model room. People always go for the big models. Starts great conversation.

Thank you very much

The ford GT compared to the Miura. The Miura is so sexy. The build was the hardest of my 1/8 builds. But worth it. Running out of room for these big kits. Finished the Super Snake GT500, the Red Bull F1 car, Shelby cobra 427, Ford GT, now the Miura. The 1/8 kits I have in the shed are the Mazda cosmo, VW bug convertible, Shelby GT 500, and the pocher Ferrari testarossa. I was just notified yesterday that Agora wants me to build their new Mercedes gull wing kit. I think it’s the eagle moss kit. Eagle moss is no more. Best part of the Mercedes build is that I get to paint her any way I want. Oh boy , here we go again.

Ok guys , finally am able to finish this build. The last steps are the hardest. The body fit is really bad. I had to cut slice and modify the mounts to fit this body. Still not a great fit for me. The silver rocker covers were terrible. I had to remove all the mounts and superglue the rockers on. While it looks ok now , it was a pain . Do not expect this kit to go together easy. You will have to model her. Here are the finished pics. Glamor shots will be at a later date. Hopefully tomorrow.

Yes they do. DeAgostini.

Went riding today. In front of my house. New road tires, new seat, have 250 miles on her.

One of my favorite Indy cars! I was there with my dad at Indy that year. We saw Mario crash his main car, I believe it was qualifying and I remember people saying he had to use a secondary car. They were scrambling to get it ready. Andy Granatelli was not happy. 1967 was not a happy finish, 1968 was not great either, who knew a secondary car would do it. But that car was great that day and Mario was also. Pretty cool subject and a great build. Great job

Very , Very NICE!

Getting off my rearend and started to finish the Miura. Here is the rear end of the Miura. The details are very nice on the model. You do have to model this kit. Some pieces need adjustment or modifications but overall it’s a nice kit. If you have ever worked on a real Italian super car , you will know what I mean.

Hello Ray, I’ll talk to Mark when he gets back from his vacation. Try to get you a new set of pipes.

Cobra time!!!!!

Very classy and great build

Hello Claude. Fantastic build sir! You’re blessed with skills and ideas that are out of this world. Another super build. Great job sir.

Sand blasted the transmission. Polished the carbs. Gives different effects on white metal.

Started back up on the lusso. Rested for a couple of months. Here we go.

Hello Curt. No sir I’m home and resting. Wanted to make it but the wife is not feeling well. Have a great time and send me pics if you can.

I was once told that your success is your kids. If they turn out to be good people and do well in society then you have success. Here are my kids. Well not kids anymore. My boy is biological mine but the girls are adopted. They are doing great. The boy just got back from the Ukrain. He is in special forces. And cannot say anymore about that. But the daughters are successful, Lauren is a cover model and the other daughter is a 5.0 student and receives the deans list every year.I’m very happy and proud of them.

Had one. Imported the car from Italy. It’s the one I should have not let go. I am a BMW certified body tech . The cars are beautiful and some are great. Read your reviews on the car you want. Better have deep pockets as they are very high maintenance. Had a 2002 way back when and loved that car also. Just be careful and do your research . BMW have lemons also. Good luck on your future purchase.

Very nice!!!!!

Prayers to you sir. Get well. Need to see that Cadillac built, LOL!!!!

Great job Chris.
