Re: Cataracts

I had the surgery a year ago. I am back to modeling. I wear glasses full time to correct close and mid range vision. I also use magnifying glasses for close work. Color perception is much improved.

Re: 1/8th Miura

1/8th Miura

One of my favorite classic designs. This is the Miura offered by Agora models. It was a subscription. Agora is a good company and they ship from the Florida to Hawaii. Fun build, now looking forward to the next one, Mercedes W196R. Dave IMG_1797.jpg IMG_1783.jpg IMG_1782.jpg IMG_1781.jpg IMG_1780.jp...
