A number of weeks ago I warned you guys that I had started the build of my AR Coupe and that I would be posting a WIP here.
Well, it is happening.
Upfront, this will not be anywhere near what some of you are displaying here, but I will learn and maybe even master some techniques along the way.
I've done some ootb building 40-35 years ago. I'did build up quite a stash of kits, mostly 1:24 scale,
I have sold most of them over the past few years and replaced them with 1:8 and one 1:12 (Bentley).
I was planning to start when I was going to be retired in a few years, but, well.... Britmodeller happened and I couldn't wait anymore.
Back in 1996 I ran into Pocher and actually only the AR Coupe Elegant.
A local shop had a number of boxes for what now would be $100. I bought 3, sold one immediately which more than paid for the three kits. I sold the second a few years back for about 20 times what I paid for it.
This is the story of what happens to the third kit.
I didn't open the box until 2008 or 9. Started the chassis and the engine. I also did the wheels back then, but after that left it until this year.
I'm taking pictures but not enough, so apologies for that.
As said, this one is not going to perfect, but feel free to comment anytime. I'm here to learn as much as possible.
Just one other thing, english is not my mother tongue, so bear with me if I'm not understandable.
Here it goes
