Well, another one on the go.

I've never, ever, had more than one build going on at the same time but for whatever reason, just lately I've found myself doing multiple 'projects' all at the same time.
It sure is fun, and makes each build kind of 'fresh' each time you go back to it.

Now - the Edsel.
Apart from Jaguars, I just love the 50's - 60's American cars.
The 'Ugly' Edsel is a favourite.

So far I've built the basic engine and added my own decals to the rocker covers and now decided to try trimming this little 1/25th model in real leather...

Ok, not really 'to scale', but it's more of a challenge to myself to see if it works out.
Front bench seat done. Not too bad, I think.
