Due to consistent issues with Photobucket I can't show you what I bought, but I have bought a new toy which will bug the absolute crap out of Ray because it isn't a Holden.....it's a rust free, bog free Subaru Brumby ute. Hopefully, in two years time it will have a WRX engine dropped into the front end and at less than 800kgs will blow Rays top notch Holden away!

You lucky bugger A2, I've been looking for one of those great little utes for years. There was one at Haddon for sale, but it was gone in a flash.
So I've bought two Foresters all up for my other half, great wagon to drive and I ended up with a Colorado ute. If I want to fly I'd rather prefer two wheels.

A2 maybe you should look into fitting a turbo rotary into the Brumby as well, a mate had a little Datsun ute so fitted out, couldn't keep it on the ground until it got tea leafed by low life's, never found it.

Cheers for the festive season.

A little Christmas miracle - received this yesterday...

I got a little excited and cut off some big pieces already! Note that the white square in the pic above is the window masks sheet!
The clear parts aren't in the pic as they don't photograph well. (The pax windows are all individual little pieces)


Image

Note that (on my example at least) the floor and ceiling pieces are a little too wide, so the fuselage halves don't close up neatly - gonna have to remove the locating pins and massage them with a motor tool to fix.

Whilst this kit release contains rudimentary IPEC markings, I will be producing better ones for Hawkeye. Cheers!

Scott.

Given the sad nature of today, I felt the need to remember the USAF F-4 retirement. So I bought some stuff.

A couple of patches

And some Twobobs QF-4E decals as I wanna do 638's pfinal phlight :)

Apparently I just can't help myself......what can I say, I am a sucker for a nice Air Racer :D
(and my Bank Manager would personally like to thank Adam for this 1:32 Air Racer "thing" I have going on)

There is just something very alluring and desirable about the Williams Brothers series of 1:32 "Golden Age" Air Racers. I would love to go back in time and see some of these amazing machines in action (especially the Gee Bees).
