Looks like a another nice project taking shape.

Where is the like button?

Another gem in the making!

Gives the rest of us something to aim for.

David.

You're far too kind David. Your Mog is exceptional.

This is going to be another lovely build.

I have 2 sets of PST's 15" wires that I purchased to go with a Lotus Elise kit. But I think they'll probably stay unmade in the bottom of the draw.

I am working on a MG myself at the moment

Peter's wheel can be a bit daunting - I made up my first set for the my Talbot and they weren't as challenging as I thought.

For those of you looking for scale wheels to suit these classic cars Peter's website is https://sites.google.com/site/peters132wirewheels/

Any pictures of your progress David?

Thanks David. I love the detail on this car.

This one isn't mine unfortunately - a mate saw my D50 and Talbot and asked me to do a couple for him.

Have you seen the kits George has coming out this year... I am excited about the D Type I am confident he will do it well.

Wow! What sparked the interest in British Verticals? We have one guy building Moggy trikes, and
now an early MG. I did a TD a while back from an Airfix model. I powered it with an NC-1 and
ran it with out Ninco Classic class. It was fun but too narrow to be competitive. I like the pre-war
cars, but no one else does. I think they could be fun.

It started when my Dad plunked me into the side curtain compartment of his '35 Singer Le Mans when I was 3 years old. Then he bought me a set of Scalextric Bentleys when I was 12. At 16 I started on a long run of 1:1 Brit cars (including a '66 4.2L E-type coupe). Now I have 3 pre war Singers and a TD as well as a few dozen pre war slots (mainly British). I love the look of the pre war cars and they are perfectly competitive as long as they are running with other pre war, non mag cars.

Nice cars and project! I like those wheels!

I always wanted a Singer LeMans for my little collection. I went to a collector car auction once
for the express purpose of bidding on one that was in the catalogue. I though I had it when no
one responded to my opening bid. Then suddenly everyone was bidding on it. It went well beyond
what I was willing to spend, so I missed it. I was already depressed from having missed on an SS100
earlier in the year due to someone offering much more money for it than the deal the owner and I
had previously agreed on. I guess you just can't have everything. But I keep trying.
