thanks Rich, theres some brilliant detail on your 1/18.
And I have that Toyota, that color too. Ebrro did some great stuff, I have the little S800 Honda (bad rash) and the Fairlady as well. Close to pulling the trigger on the Porsche 911. Thanks Lu.
@geoff-jowett Ebbro's certainly got the details, parts count and build quality. Their car body lines always seemed crisper than the Mints to me.
That 1939 Bugatti 57C Le Mans car is fantastic. Love the driver. Thanks for sharing.
Jaguar Sunday! Here we have a 1955 Jaguar D-Type #9 car from Historic Replicars (HR). Unlike all the other D-Type racers, the #9 car piloted by Bill Spear and Phil Walters was painted in white with blue stripes. It competed in the 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans but dropped out due to distributor issues. Compared with other HR D-Types, this little gem has a traditional rear view mirror and a side exhaust set-up.
OK Lu now you've done it! I'm writhing on the floor in agony! A Jaguar D Type in 1/24, my most wanted diecast!
Hubba Hubba !!! I would forgo the wheels,but the rest of the gold fittings really make this beauty stand out!!! Mega-Lo-Mart here we come !!!!  Thanks for the fine pics Lu
oh yeah!
this model and their Cobras are outstanding value. Thanks for the continued updates Lu. Chav hasn't chimed in for a while, wonder where he is?
Nice model! I remember that familiar whistle announcing that the Helmsman was in the neighborhood selling Olympic Bread and other bakery goods. In the '60's Ben was our neighborhood Helmsman and he drove a truck just like this. Â
