Hallo Mario

How is the model coming along? The pictures look fantastic. I have the same kit but only works on it when I can find the time. My work is no way near the quality of yours.

I can however be to some help if you’re missing pictures of the real deal, I have a 1952, 15 Six in my collection. This winter I’m replacing the manifold course the old one had cracked; it is a common issue with the 6 cylinder versions of the car. Spare parts are not that easy to get hold of, but I managed to find a used one in good condition. The overall state of my car I fine, so perhaps you would like some specific photos.

Mario,

Great stuff! I bought this kit for $A99-00 some forty years ago (when the Australian dollar was worth $1-27 U.S.!), and have worked on it sporadically ever since. I have examined the real car, and find that, so far as detail is concerned, this is the BEST kit of any sort I have ever seen! Beats the Pocher kits hands down! Your workmanship puts mine to shame, I'm afraid, but has inspired me to continue, and to lift my standards a little, I hope. Please keep the reports coming - and the images - they are a great help to me in my endeavours. Whilst I thought that the only part missing in the kit was the seat fore-aft adjustment levers, your posts have clearly indicated that there is a lot more I can add. Thank you!

Best wishes,

Ron Anstis.
