Thanks Jeremy. It's my first attempt at this sort of thing, so there has been much trepidation. I really like the model. While I picked it up locally for $20, I have seen very few others for sale and those that I have are really expensive, so I didn't want to trash it. I also picked up a Bugatti Atalante, which might be my next effort. This too seems to be a very rare model. Funny, when I was a kid I used to build the Airfix cars and looked at the Pyros with some disdain. They weren't nearly as detailed and the fit wasn't as good as the Airfix. Funny they're worth so much more now.

Looks nice, I like the way they add to your layout.
Oh by the way what scale are your cars I think they are the bomb in pre war era automobiles and have you tried the future floor wax on any of your builds yet?

[whitworthnut]

All the pre war cars are 1/32. I also run carrera 1/24, all 60's vintage (e types, Ferraris, GT-40, etc). No I haven't tried Future yet.

Thanks I thought they where 124 cause of all the detail you have in them.
In your avatar is that a P51 with the merlin RR engine behind you classic car?.

Your Alfa is coming along nicely where do you find those true spoke wire wheels at?
How are you going to paint and detail the driver?
