Beautiful work, Chris. :D :D :D

Such a cool car. I was inspired to find out what it sounded like:

After a long warm up (apparently Bucknam's sister car), they finally let it rip. :shock:

Anyway, sorry, your build is great. :mrgreen:

Cheers,
Greg

Very nice build. And kit purchase to finished build in 15 years is pretty good!

Hi Chris,

You have a very well built RA272!

I learn something from your build, spinning the wheel and painting the edge of the rim. I'll try this method .

After the 15 year build up to building, your build is well built! That's my written build allotment for the day. Whoops just gone over by one! Nice write up too. Thanks.

Cheers,
T
