Looks good. 

Photos will decieve, so it's hard to tell if the "road contact" part of the tire tread is that hint darker than the bottom of the tread.  Either way, a fine build.

Excellent build and weathering, Pawel.  We'll keep the lights on here until they get the new forum going!

Mark, John - thanks a lot for your comments and for your kind words! About the forums - I don't know, looks like these forums are just for us now!

Reminds me of an old GErman joke I hear many years ago... It goes like that:

Brigitte Bardot is visiting Moscow at the time when her star was shining really bright. Khrushchev, the leader of the USSR is receiving her on a private audience and he says to her: Comrade Bardot, we are impressed by your art and your person, we would like to grant you a wish, no matter what it might be! To what Brigitte Bardot replies: Comrade First Secretary, I'd like to ask you to pen the borders and grant your citizens the freedom of travel! To that Khrushchev smiles and says: Look at that hot thing, she would like to be with me all alone!

I don't know if you get the joke (which is very readable to all who lived in socialism and wanted to go abroad really badly), but on these forums I fell a bit like I'm left here all alone - so I'm so glad to have you!

Have a nice day

Paweł

I get it exactly, Pawel.  I took Russian as a language in high school (1960 to 1964) and learned a lot about Russian politics at the time.
