That looks fantastically detailed! Nice work on the decals too

Those wheels look so much better without the chrome. Bonnet looks like a good fit to me, I always sand away a little more as I know I’m quite heavy when painting

Such an eye for detail! I’d just stick with pretty but inaccurate
interested to see how this comes out. What did the Tamiya injection pump look like?

This looks like a very detailed model coming together. Nicely done & looking forward to your next update
-
Good choice to remove the leather from the seats. The paint has worked really well! I’ve never tried Zero’s textured paints. Did you spray or brush?

I used to have a corgi lotus 72 when I was very little. I wish I knew where it is now, I bet it’s in worse condition than your £1 wreck! Beautiful restoration. Those decals have come out really well. very crisp & looks like a perfect fit

Even at 1/12th scale this is really impressive. Those hose clips look spot on!

This is so impressive. Wasn’t sure what to expect when I clicked on this thread, didn’t think I’d be so interested in an engine by itself, but I’m blown away! You’ve created a real work of art

Huge improvement. Nicely done

This kit would require more accurate mold making. Let's hope that Pocher has the body design more faithful to the original than Testors/Monogram got it.
It seems a bit weird to like this post, but it’s interesting to see the comparison. Are you planning to build the Pocher version?

Nice to see this car done differently. Nicely done

I would say that’s a pretty impressive job for a bad kit. Very crisp & paint is nice & shiny. Except for the odd looking wing mirrors, it looks pretty good

Nice build, colour looks great. Kit looks well detailed. I’m really struggling to see any misalignment too!

You can get bondo in any Halfords. I'd use Milliput though.
I’d suggest millput too. Easy to get from Amazon or Hobbycraft. I’ve not noticed any shrinking, it goes into little gaps like that well & smooths easily with a wet finger
Engine looks great, looking forward to seeing this come together. Good luck!

Until the photo with your hand, I thought I was looking at pictures of a real car.
I was just about to say exactly the same thing! I bet you spent ages removing any over sized rocks. Great pics and very well done model. Nice details on the roof rack & great shine to the paint

Great car, I’d like to build one at some point. Really impressed with the white. No sign of the red plastic at all!
-
It’s amazing how much detail there is in such a small model! This is really impressive

What an excellent end result for such a troubled build! The colour is perfect for the car

Love these 50s Grand Prix cars, I think you can get an Alfa Romeo from the same year too. Very clean build. I think if I was to build one of these, I would consider aftermarket wheels though

This looks like a fantastic kit & you've built it well. The Gold Leaf is my favourite livery, the colours look great on the race cars and the road cars
-
I love this rusty look, but can’t bring myself to hurt a classic like that! I think you’ve got just the right amount of rust, so it looks salvageable. Great finish on the soft top, the slight mould / mossy look adds an extra layer of realism

This has come out so well! Really nice detail & the I can’t believe how good the decals look after seeing the issues on your WIP

This age of mustang is probably the least appealing, but you have really given it some loving attention. The end result is fantastic!
-
Anither very unusual kit well built. The weathering on the rollers looks so real!

Nice smooth looking finish. Interesting colour choice. Interested to see how it looks with a clear coat
