Looks just like the model Allan. That is a 1:1, right, your photos are so good

I can never tell the difference.

Yes Paul, it's a real car. Thanks for the compliment. My model photos may be good,but i don't think they are quite that good.

Thanks Chris. It does look pretty good for a 25 year old shot.

Allan what film did you use for the original ........

'capture'? It looks like Kodachrome 64 to me but I am not sure!

I have loads of Kodachrome slides from the same period and they look just like new! There are loads of shots taken at car rallies. Must get a scanner and have some fun re-living all those memories and sharing them here!
