  1. Just test assembling the Meyers Manx Red recently purchased.. Must get it in focus next time under real light!
  2. Nice Beer Wagon and Refuse Truck!
  3. I was also lucky to go to the LeMans 24 Hours twice! But many years ago. Whilst there I saw one of the works Mercedes cars take off and fly into the woods, the driver was sitting by the open driver's door when the rescue crews found him! Since then the Mercedes factory pulled out the works team from the event!
  4. Ready for the salt, superb well done!
  5. Nice one Ray. Good looking British racer!
  6. Wow! Saw that in action in the day at Silverstone Circuit, UK. When I was a long time race/air traffic marshall.
  7. Thanks guys. We had an American base (Upper Heyford) nearby until recently and we have heavy British transport now also nearby at Brize Norton. It's all new heavy transport, big and load!
  8. Thanks guys, yes camo under the hood rather than basic paint or none at all.
  9. Yes the Tow'd one has always been elusive, so I've not seen one here in the UK!
  10. Thanks guys, my finished one is in the Completed section.
  11. After building a standard, and a surf version, I thought military version (hoping I've put this in the right forum). Built box stock, camo painting all flat surfaces included the 'glass' side and rear window!
  12. Just finished, showing the aircraft and the two smaller items that came with the kit, a Jeep and a Field Gun. The rear doors have rubber hinges so rest partially open.
  13. Purchased from a fellow modeler, on my trying to find a meyers manx kit in the UK. My purchase after discussion included the Subaru and the Corvette needing tyres! The Manx I also need to take templates for my own scratchbuilt beach buggy project.
  14. Thanks guys. Alan there's no hint on the box/instructions of the scale size. I've put a search into the PC, some say 1/72 that I thought it was, another supplier say's it's 1/77.
  15. Great! I remember seeing the original film, donkey's years ago!
  16. I don't know how it's written as the box art is in capital letters.
  17. Built over two days, added the decals today and paint orange markings tomorrow. Decals are difficult to lay up on this 1960 kit as the placement areas are embossed on the plastic!
  18. Although not a car, but I did this over two days, and I've just got to add the orange painted markings.. The kit an Aurora one (C-119G Boxcar) has the date 1960. The decals were difficult to place as the position of each one is embossed in the plastic!
  19. Another couple of them. The craze is Japanese where they are a very economic way to get about..
  20. Thanks guys, I'm always looking for something different!
  21. Great! I bought and built the Lego one about 12 months ago.
  22. I bought a 3D one from Shapeways! Here it is.. Difficult to paint when it's in one piece!
