As ever, Michal, your work is inspiring. The attention to detail really makes your model come to life in a way that's remarkable and that's only from the photos. I'd love to see it in real life.

Working in cloth and synthetic leather is a new area for me and I am, like a lot of others, faced with making the mantlet covers for my Cent and Comet. I'm taking a lot from what you've done, so thanks for posting.

Keep us entertained please with more updates in the future.

Happy Christmas and a successful new model making year.

Stephen

Hello guys,

thank you for the nice comments. The way about the roof construction and the canvas was very hard. I had to make four construction and until the fifth construction was correct. The same situation was about the canvas. My mum made three canvas and the fourth was right. I tried three kind of textiles for canvas and I think this cotton material is the best solution. The roof construction is cutted from stanless steel by laser.

Best regards
Michal

Hi all

I must give credit to Michal for his aftermarket parts, I just received his dashboard detailing and full canopy which are just simply excellent and way out of my league even if I had the time !, I'm hoping to post something in the near future but my building has come to a shuddering halt as being a forester, this time of year is manic !!

Cheers

Bryan.
