Hi,

I've been modelling all my life starting with 2/6d Airfix kits in bags (who remembers those?). Haven't done too much in recent years but now that I'm retired I'm starting to get back into it. I've been thinking of doing a partwork for years but could never justify the cost to "She who must be obeyed". However, I recently came into an inheritance and I thought this would be a good way to use some of it. So here goes; Jaguar E-type ordered an anxiously awaiting the first delivery.
