Now I want to build mine, but I've had two cars on the go for the last year or so - in fact everything has been on the go for the last year or so!

Superb looking build Ratch - very nice work.

I do have two questions for you though, How did you paint the writing on the bonnet, and where the clear headlights part of the kit?

Cheers

Cheers Stuart, I picked out the letters with a fine, pointed brush and the headlight transparencies came with the kit
