  1. OK Tom I'll try and make a good job of it, more pics tomorrow.
  2. Yes Atmobil, French with English decals. I'm trying to find a French Citroen dealership on google so that I can name it on the van!
  3. Although the kit has a small number of decals they depict an English garage, but the kit is left hand drive and all imported 2cv's from Citroen were all right hand drive. So I've printed some french Michelin logo's depicting a tyre dealer, they appear on the sides, all doors, bonnet and roof................ The rear load area interior with spare wheel ..................................................... The cab interior with some stick on carpet from the spares bin.................
  4. So as shown the suspension under load, normal setting and unloaded, with the load area rear suspension hanging lower than the front................
  5. Just started this yesterday.... The kit suspension as is the real van with torsion bar suspension.
  6. WE used to ride those and Lambretta's in the '60's as 'Mods', great fun, especially at the seaside on bank holidays. Super build Adam well done!
  7. Cheers Jeremy, and I always try and do something different!
  8. I've only got the tyre decals on the tyres. The wheels are just rough painted. There are OZ wheel decals for the centres but I can never get those in the right place as they are so small. Thanks Jonathan, just trying something different! I've started building a Citroen 2CV van by Tamiya/Ebbro, found the Michelin man and various Michelin logo's on Google last night so just printed them onto white decal paper. So it's out into the cabin to seal them with Gloss Clear, once dry, give them another coat later and they are ready to go!
  9. It looks superb, as a race marshall I remember these in the day!
  10. The chrome rims with the first photo look great!
  11. Thank you David. I live just 5 miles from the Silverstone racing circuit. I was a race and airfiels marshall there for nearly 30 years, so combining my interests of racing and flying!
  12. Thanks for sharing the photo's Justin. superb.

    Merc DTM

    Looking fantastic so far. I have one Merc and an Audi both DTM cars on the shelf.
  17. Thanks guys. The build is just down to research and imagination of how I would like to see a 1:1 car that I would build and run, really great fun. Just as a taster I'm now looking at Time Attack cars, that's sprinting round a road course track against the clock for only one lap! So the cars are built like some of the Pikes Peak cars, very low with wings front and back!! So I shall be using plenty of plasticard!
  18. Well all finished today, added the foot pegs,pipes,number plate, headlight and just three decals, two moon and one number plate decal.
  19. Cheers Pat, yes get on and build a cracker for us all to enjoy. How's BC, our eldest son lives near Calgary?
  20. Cheers Bob, some update pics coming in a few minutes............. OR even now!
  21. Thanks Dann, I would very much like to see pics of their cars please!
