    Your forum needs you !!

    Never an easy topic for Bob to broach but I hope he will forgive me if I give it a go on his behalf. I was surprised and bit upset to see that Bob is paying $60 a month or over $700 a year for us to enjoy this Forum. I know some of us contribute to a tip jar but I had no idea what I donate...

    MFH Abarth 1000-SP 1/12 FINISHED

    So i am laying the foundations here of my first MFH car build. Its rather daunting being multi media, white metal, resin, vac form etc, basically a whole new experience for me. I dont really know what to expect in terms of fit, drilling required and alignment. I guess i will need a good flat...

    Fake or real ?

    Really hard to tell these days. Once Spitfires became too expensive to leave outside RAF stations at the gate, a company started producing fiberglass replicas to take over the role of gate guardian. Meanwhile this one was real but like an idiot i set the shutter speed to high and froze the...
