Fantastic! Love the engine work, copper pipes look like the real thing. Excellent weathering on the exhaust also. I've seen guys in the USA use Band-Aids for exhaust heat wrapping. Did yours come with the kit?
Top Job!

Thanks for the comments :thumb2: much appreciated, yes it did come with the kit, basically a piece of string held in place by soaking in pva diluted with a bit of water and a blob of ca either end the copper pipes are copper wire.

Glad you found the old mojo again.

That's a beauty Mark and welcome back. Nicely weathered, very real looking.
Funny how evolution has moved the engine to the back...looking at the profile, you'll just need to switch everything around to the opposite direction and fit wings to the rear and you'll have an F1.

Cheers,
Wabble
