HOUSTON Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Rob, BEAUTIFUL...what a GRACEFUL sleek car. GOOD work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Thank you, kind sirs... The wheels are built, painted and now fitted. All in all, a very straightforward if tedious task. I listened to the audio book of Lord of the Rings whilst working so it wasn’t all that bad. On the home straight now. Front horn and number plate bar still to fit, as well as the rear license plate, tail lights, steering wheel and windscreen parts. Another days work should see it all sorted.Then it will be a good polishing to remove my numerous finger marks and a search for a home for the wee beastie.The Alfa is considerably smaller than the Rolls Torpedo, but it is still by no means a ‘little’ model, measuring in at about 21” long. Roy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rishi Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Stunning, Masterpiece. The Chrome on crank handle and front suspension is shinning. What is next ALFA ROMEO 8C 2900B??? I wish there were some reasonable kits on this model. Cheers, Rishikesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codger Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I'm so glad the wheels aren't black. The light color sets the whole car off brilliantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 This has turned out beautifully, VERY impressive! I have one question...where do you get your leather for the seats? I think after seeing this my Bentley may be calling for some.... Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted November 30, 2014 Author Share Posted November 30, 2014 (edited) I use a nice leather that I get from a helpful supplier.... Roy. Edited August 13, 2015 by roymattblack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Thanks Roy, I just ordered some emerald green. It's way more than I will need, but thanks so much for the link! If anyone else here would like some of this, let me know! Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
