Hi all! I have been invited by Mark to show what I am doing so let me quickly explain what this is all about. I am not a company (although that may change in the future), I am not into mass production and I do not really carry any stock nor do I sell on eBay. I started a while back with building smaller models, dioramas and displays. Some kind people liked that and so it went on. I work to order (mostly) and design, construct and build all parts, decals etc. myself. For a little while now I focus on big scale models only as most of those are big but not very accurately made. So I am trying to offer the enthusiast modeller upgrade parts (or a fully build model to your specs) which mimic the original as close as possible. Well, it all depends on original pics and info that I can gather after all. So do not hesitate to correct me on details. If all this sounds interesting to you I kindly invite you to have a look here – www.29-design.deOne more thing – as I am not a company I do not display prices on my website and so far I have a price list for the Ford GT only. This is simply because so far there was no need for other ones  . If you would like to know more, just contact me here or drop me a line – info@29-design.deWell, enough said – let’s enjoy modelling again  Volker

well worth a look, folks.
Lot's of stuff that's really-really tempting.
I have already succumbed to temptation and will let you know how I get on

Thanks for sharing. These look like some dramatic improvements. I plan to order most of what you’re offering. -Dustin

I was hoping someone would address the problem with the level of detail on some of this part work I’m struggling with modifying the awful fuel pumps and fitting a correct roll bar.The million dollar question is as always how much am I willing to spend on top of the not inconsiderable price of the build

But then, that's half the fun.
Coming up with ideas and solutions to the 'lack of detail' that most/all part-builds deliver.
We're an ingenious lot, us modellers and we're pretty good at 'sharing' if we discover something.

I agree entirely ,I really should post more of my build but with the better weather I seem to be spending more time in the garden and cleaning cars

Very nice! Unfortunately I’m no help with the nameplate. Are you planning to tackle any of the suspension/steering? -Dustin

And some more.... The hose for the cooling duct is made out of soft rubber hence the steering angle is not an issue anymore. 6 individual parts per side. Autolite volt regulator - 12 parts plus decal and cables...
