Thanks for the compliments! :) It was a fun build, if a bit trying to get everything modified for the conversion! If anyone builds one of these, there is a mistake on installing the front and rear glass on the directions. It shows them being installed from the inside, when they should be installed from the outside. A very cool kit that I am glad Airfix brought back.

I must admit that the "Herald" was far from one of my favorite cars (as a kid our neighbor had one and I thought it was hideous), .......having said that, your build is really nicely done, and your color choice is great!!........makes what I still think is an ugly little bugger,..look,..well...."cute" :) ............hats off to you sir!!

Cheers
