Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Woohoo! Me first!

A late xmas present from friends who came to dinner on New Years Day.  I may add some tuning parts from AMT model Ts (IRL there was a plethora of parts available to hop up the four cylinder flathead) but other than that I fancy building it with the driver and her fancy man.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I've not actually got it yet, but the Big H has told me that my backordered AMP Piaggio-Pegna P.c.7 kit has arrived.  :thumbsup:



As bizarre as it already is, I have some serious Whiffing plans for it.  ;)
