What a superb finish, John (on both of them actually). I don't know much about car models; which kit is the E-Type?

By coincidence drove behind a white one yesterday. They are with out doubt one of the best sports jobs about. One of the best things to come out of the sixties beautiful round wings such as smooth looking thing. It seems to float above the ground. Nothing to touch it at the time & even now it looks as good as any of the new types. Eat your heart out Ferrari.

John you have not spoilt that original that is a very nice model. Classy like the real thing. What person does not admire that job as it goes past. Great fun racing the car with my BSA Shooting Star. Beaten on the straight but no match on the roundabout. A friend on the Island used to have one, a white one, jealous, but then it was a family or an E Type. Guess who won. Pauline of course.

What is next John. A Shooting Star ?

Great finish John the E-types look great together. What impresses me the most is the fact that you built two of those crappy kits in a row and ended up with two great cars.

Thanks for ur kind post Daniel, i know what you mean about the kit's the trouble with making a custom car is you are always changing ur mind half way through, you got to work to a plan & stick to it.
