I seem to recall that fuel gauges were only fitted from a certain point onwards. I'd have to research it to find out precisely when they became standard issue.
EDIT: Got it - 1962.

Nice to see one still on the road. Daimler SP250, I think those wheels are original.

hello
in New Members
from the other end of the mainland!

Just bumping this up in the hope the lower prices might tempt someone!

I thought "Beetle Limousine" was an oxymoron until @Spiny clarified it!

Stunning. Amazing creativity and depth of detail, truly believable.

Beautiful! I'm an ardent fan of 1960's Mustangs - the earlier the better - and this one is a cracking example. Really nice chromework too - I know what a sod hand-painting Molotow is from bitter experience! Lovely job.

Beautiful model of a phenomenal car. Excellent job!

The cruel camera lens again... I reckon the floor will look fine as is but you have the option of flock powder or making a floor mat from masking tape if it is still too noticeable for you. Nice wheels, by the way!

I used to have a 626 identical to that apart from the engine - it was a 2.0 litre GT. Great load-carrier but very bland and boring. I traded it for a hooligan SAAB 9000 2.3 full-pressure turbo (200bhp of turbo-lag, throttle-lag and transmission-lag) that tried to kill me on several occasions but I loved it!

from the other side of the South! I was brought up in Devon (Exeter and Exmouth) and still regard it as Home. I've only been here a year or two but have really benefited from it so I'm sure you will too.

Ditto! A '66 Batmobile build is on my bucket list but not at that price - or size!
-
I can only echo Spiny's comments. It's a lovely bit of redesign, well thought through and equally well executed. When finished it would be worth displaying on a mirror to show it off.

from another Brit. What took you so long? 🙂

What better rear axle assembly could you find to tame a Mustang? They use them almost exclusively for hot-rods for a reason.

...and that's a beauty! My father had three on the trot back in the '60s, a 2.4, a 3.8 and a Daimler V8 2.5 and I loved them all. I actually got to drive the Daimler, an experience I won't forget, hence my desire to build a model of one.

Neddy, That MG TF might be one of the Auto Kits range? It is the only TF kit I can think of but their range is in 1/24th.
Don't forget that Tamiya did a Mk2 Jaguar saloon too.
K&R replicas have been around for a long time now and better known probably by 1/43rd enthusiasts than 1/24th sale builders.
You're right, it's 1/24 scale. I had to dig it out of the display cabinet to check it - it's been there so long the tyres were stuck to the shelf!

Beautiful rarity. I've just bought a kit of that, I wonder if it's a 190SL or a 300SL? Either way it's amazing to find one around.

Thanks Chris, I never knew they existed and they're only half an hour's drive away from me. The chance to build a 1/24 Mk II Jaguar has got me thinking about raiding the piggy-bank, I haven't built a white metal kit for over half a century. I've still got a 1/32 MG TF I built back in the day but don't ask me what make, I haven't a clue!

All items have been owned by me and inside-stored for many years. All are opened but otherwise untouched except where detailed.
All prices include postage (UK only please). Payment via PayPal accepted. Offers and multibuys considered.
Heller 1/72 Canadair CL215 - £25
Rare old JO-HAN 1/24 Pro-Stock Maverick and '64 Dodge Super Stock - £25 each or £45 the pair.
Now here's a real rarity. Prices on auction sites vary from £30 to £75 but whether they sell for it is a different story! - £25
-
I love it! This is getting interesting... 🙂

For a 1/72 scale model that really is impressively detailed and finished.

That's the thing about T-Bucket and similar hot-rod kits, they're basically very simple anyway and so open they all just cry out for creative improvement. You can use one as a base and do your own thing with it. Whether I'll be able to bring myself to do that with my next build is another matter - Ed Roth's Tweedy Pie is so famous and iconic in itself I'll probably keep it OOB apart from detailing as who would want to try and improve on the Master's work? I don't think I'd have the temerity.

An equally massive
! You'll normally find me on the vehicles (non-military) section but I tend to keep up with the sci-fi section.
You wanted quality chat? Good luck with that...

Not boring us at all good sir, it'll be good to see one of these go together. I've often pondered trying one myself.
