Superb Jim, keep up the good work!

Thanks David.

Thanks guys. Yes he tried a quick getaway so I sent him to the naughty corner! The top colour is how we colour convertibles here in the UK. Sand, Dark Red or Grey. Of course we also boring standard Black or Dark Blue.

Cheers Carl.

Thanks Chris, a kit that I've been looking for, for some time.

Cheers guys. The paint is Tamiya Gun Metal Grey and the top is sprayed Acrylic Sand.

Really Neat!

Thanks Oliver. The kit is good with working steering and the decals come with it.

Built box stock, I've just added alloy tube exhaust extensions..

Superb! We don't see many of these kits in the UK and the shipping to import them is $30 each!

Neat!

Brilliant!

two for my 73rd birthday a few days ago.. and although in 1/35th scale I'll build it as a surfboard transporter..

I'm into 'Surf Stuff' in a big way, so found your 'rebuild' brilliant! I don't know the kit as we in the UK never saw many 'original' custom kits here. I like the Canada flag /Maple Leaf logo one of your best parts of the build, well done!

Cheers guys.

Thanks guys. I've been looking at builds that not too complex, having waited for surgery since November last year. I've now had that procedure (removal of a Gall Bladder) last Thursday so out of hospital on the Friday. Although I'm not allowed to lift anything for four weeks I can still get out every day to walk/exercise and shop with my wife. Also I turned a young 73 yesterday (being Patrick and it being Saint Patricks day, born to an Irish mother). So I've started a Phantom Vicky build, that I hope will be on here next week some time.

Cheers Chris.

WOW! Brilliant! I initially thought you were going to dio it on snow as I know you get a bit in BC! But the desert dio is crazy fantastic! Our eldest son is in Calgary so we get over there now and again!

I built the race version when it first came out by Tamiya. I was in fact at the press release at the Silverstone circuit, 'A Volvo Estate Car racing, impossible' was the press headline! I built this one a couple of years ago from a glue bomb I picked up off ebay UK..

Thanks Carl.

Thanks Larry, yes it should be an early op and out the same day.

Cheers Lee.

Not doing anything detailed at present due to hospitalisation next week. Built box stock, as it has fittings for an electric motor, it hasn't got much interior detail, just a dash and steering wheel. Added a few decals as kit decals were poor.

Thanks Larry, it's been on the shelf for a few years, I thought I'd better build it!
