Alan R Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Hello All, I finally got this beastie over the finish line before the end of 2020. It's just that the pictures were languishing in my Camera until a day or so ago! This one fought me to the end. There are a number of faults. The boot-lid doesn't fit properly and the rubbing strips brightwork didn't come out as I had hoped, but I am reasonably happy with the outcome. I think though, that I should have polished the paintwork a bit more. If I do, I'll post some more pictures. Thanks for looking, Alan. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiny Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Good to see this one reach the end - I seem to remember you starting this along with about 10 other kits so no wonder it took a while. As I think we all know, black is usually a pain so it probably is making the lack of polishing more noticeable than it would be on most other kits. Still a good result though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnlambert Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Nice to see this one done, I enjoyed the build thread even if the kit presented plenty of challenges. I watched one of these kits go for silly money on ebay earlier this year, I can't remember if I put in a bid but it got well into the hundred pound region as I recall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
