I was looking out T35 model builds on a web search and it threw this one up. Had a good look at it when it was current on the forum but going through the posts cannot understand why at the time I failed to join the conversation (don't ask why) as I would have normally responded given the subject matter. 

So firstly my apology for my tardiness in not responding at the time.

Having said that your T35 model is an excellent build of that classic racer. Not far off starting my kit bought well over a year ago so looking at various builds by experienced modeller like yourself.

The panel fasteners make a good touch as the wires between them are quite a feature on the real car. I believe that Nick at Unobtainium is looking to do a detailing up set for this kit once he has got all his big Airfix Bentley upgrade stuff into production.

Thanks Noel! I'm pretty sure Nick at least has the correct style panel fasteners in stock now as opposed to the Alfa ones I used, but the Alfa fasteners seem like they're a bit less fragile and easier to work with. If you have any questions shoot me a PM, always happy to help.

Cheers Jason.   

Might well PM you when I start my build. Thanks for your kind offer.
