    Plenty of room in the back seat for him. I doubt he could fit behind the wheel. John.

    After nearly 5 months it's 99% complete. A member of the Geelong Woodcrafters Guild is going to carve a flying lady emblem ( 15mm high ) to go on the radiator cap which I will make to suit the base of the mascot. No idea of the hours it took, some weeks very little is done, depending how I feel, the tips of the fingers have lost there feeling, long nose pliers come into use very often. until next time, cheers John.

    Very, very nice. Well done.
    This is what scale modelling is all about.

    What a fantastic build.

    I have been following this on and off for weeks and months.

    Sorry could not resist the pun but it has been great to see the progress of this build.

    John you have excelled in this build. I have seen many a photo of the original over the years.

    I am very tempted to make a bid on the completed RR but its priceless.

    Absolutely superb John. I am sure Kurt will do the radiator cap justice with his carving.
    I can't wait to see it in real life. I hope I get the chance before you move it on.
