It is and it is driving me to distraction.

Nicely chosen words Zak.

I presume it was a deliberate comment?

No, Freudian slip.

I was hoping to bring this model to a club night, but I have been having problems with the brittleness of the plastic push on parts, they kind of snap together, well they don't and so I have had to resort to other means - superglue and some wire pins.
Anyway, just to say to John Cook, I did build it and sorry but I fear it will not travel well.
A few more bits to add yet.

Decals next, they may be in the same state as the plastic.

Unfortunately the decals are quite badly discoloured and they fell apart!
So maybe I will buy some others if any are available.
The windshield is also quite badly discoloured.

The car is looking good so far.

The car and the decals are like us, showing signs of age and cracking up.......

A very impressive selection of vehicles, well done, and thanks for the chrome tip.

This is the engine of an old Revell kit that was re-released, This is an Austin Healey 100-6.
Here is the engine, they do not provide a distributor and so this one was scratch built from rod and tube and wire. Needs further work and some paint.

I am removing the chrome from the chromed parts, it took 10 minutes or so.

Engine in the frame.

Looking good Dave.

Great work, well done.

The interior takes shape and the engine is now in position.

On the road very very soon hohohoho

I need my sunglasses.
