Hello keavdog,

I meant to imply no sarcasm, only that the vehicles on display were really cool.  I didn't even notice the background actually.  Smile  Really nice builds.

Best regards,

Mark

Just keep picking away at it...

Thanks all.

The Gt40 was Fujimi.  The Corvette Grand Sport was Accurate Miniatures.

Thanks,

What kits are the Corvette and GT40?

Great work on all of them. I also love the older Grand Prix cars.

The Tamiya 1/20 F1 cars are great kits.  I've got their Tyrrell P34 6-wheeler that I built as Depailler's car from the '76 Monaco GP, and a McLaren MP4/8 partially built up that I was making into Senna's car as it ran in some specific race that I don't recall ATM (it's been awhile).

Aesthetically, the mid to late '60s is my favourite era of F1; when the engines were bumped up to 3 liters (from 1.5L) but before the cars started started sprouting wings.  That's what a race car should look like.

Thanks Rich.   Its fun to do a car model now and then.  I mostly build airplanes  and its quite a departure from the camo and gull gray.

Thanks,

John

F1 in the 50s and 60s was some great racing!

 

I really like the cars from that era - but it was clearly the most dangerous.

Thanks all.  The Honda RA-272 is the 1/20 Tamiya kit.  I also did the Lotus 25 Coventry Climax (same scale Tamiya kit).  These are great kits.

I posted this when I finished it last year

Thanks,

John

Finally getting around to putting my shelves up this weekend.  These are a few I pulled out of the box and dusted off.
