Another ebay UK deal...................

Another rescue job whilst I'm waiting to move house. I bought it of ebay UK already built but tatty. Body, seats,dash loose and a front wheel/axle end broken off in transit. First a warm soapy wash, take all apart, clean, rebuild, hey presto!

Yes another really neat beach buggy! I did a resto job on one of these a few years ago.

Yes very neat!

I'm in the process of trying to move house, but Covid-19 has put paid to that for (we understand) a few months or more. So I have gone back into my cabin after packing away 300+ models and numerous kits, to break the boredom of waiting. I like the cartoon look of these and although a snap kit I thought I'd try one! So two and a bit days after starting..................... Without paint................. Although all grey photographs as blue! Without decals............................. With decals..........................

Well done with both builds especially the 6-wheeler. I was only down in the Williams factory last year.....

I use enamel clear coat, rattle can on all of my decals, superb finish.

Superb! But sharks spooky!

Cheers Michal.

Lovely Porsche!

Two more deals from ebay UK...............

I'm not sure if this is a new release, or not. I've searched on Google and there are very many suppliers of this kit, but no one says that it is a new one! I'll have to see if I can lift the images well enough to replicate them for decals.

A few more from ebay here in the UK............................. I've seen this with two sets of decals but none are in the kit............I've tried contacting Heller in France but both my previous email addresses have been returned! And yet another seaplane...........

All the very best to everyone out there, through these testing times. Please stay safe. Superb Rob, couldn't be better! I hope you have plenty of supplies!

Were over 70, the government here in the UK says that soon we will be not allowed out of the house for our own protection! Who will do the shopping for food etc? We went to the supermarket early on Saturday morning as we normally do and most of the shelves were empty! It seems that on Friday people were going in and buying multiple trolley loads of anything they could get hold of! No restrictions have been put on how much people can buy, so lunacy reigns! We are in the process of downsizing, going from a four bedroom split level detached house to a two bedroom single floor bungalow, why does it take so long to sort out? Were 4 months down the line, a friend tells me it took him 7 months! My huge mistake was that I packed up my 300+ models and all the kit 2 months ago! I've a good mind to clear my table in my garden cabin and get the tools and a few kits out and start building again, but that tempts fate, I bet we will get a moving date as soon as I do that! That's if we are allowed out of house arrest! 2020 is turning out to be a very bad year for everything and everyone!

Looking good! I wish I'd got a Meyers Manx in my garage as well!

It's more to slow down the fast traffic going through the housing estate towards the school. I was just showing how little the Police know about the town in general.

We need a couple of speed humps! Although it's a 30 limit through our housing estate there's a school beyond! So some parents (quite a few) drive through at 40 and 50+ in the morning to and from the school as they are late both for the school and work! Why don't they get up earlier or drag the kids out of bed earlier and drive through at the right speed? We've spoken to the Police on numerous occasions but they haven't got the 'manpower', they suggest that they train us to use a radar gun at 8 to 9am and at 3 to 4 pm and catch them all. This all happened a couple of years ago when the same idea was used in a nearby town when the public were threatened and one chap was so incensed that he tried to run over the four members of the public trying to do their civic duty and make the roads safer. All of them were taken to court and fined a puny amount and had 3 points put on their licence! What a waste of time! Oh by the buy the Police Station closed in the town centre and they now have a 'Police Office' on a nearby industrial estate, the guy who runs a tyre business opposite says they all (9) come into work at 9am, one goes out at 12 noon to get their lunches and they all leave at 5pm! Soon after they moved the female Inspector said she needs to go round the town once on Friday night and once on Saturday night before she is transferred to a bigger town. The report in the local paper the week after said she was shocked by the number of under age kids in most of the 13 pubs and drug dealing was open to all. By the time this was printed she had been transferred. There are still no Police on the streets day or night.

That looks just great! I've been to Le Mans a few times so it fits the class!

Like the 'Killer Bee' been looking for one of those here in the UK for some time!
