All finished now chaps.
Many thanks to those who followed along.

The 2nd McLaren. This one is the Jochen Mass car.
An enjoyable build.
Although these big Entex kits are quite basic they build up into a nice model where there's scope to add extras.

2 more Lotus 72's to do at some stage but they will be in Gold Leaf colours...

Another one I missed Roy, apologies again and a fantastic build of one of the most iconic Grand Prix cars ever produced, very well done indeed this is in my top three of all of your builds!

I am seriously considering splashing out on another of those expensive MFH 1:12 F1 cars soon and really fancy the 1977 McLaren M26, which was the successor to your M23, with the same beautiful red and white 'Marlboro McLaren' scheme?

Can't see how I can possibly resist that one!? Drool ThumpUp

Many thanks Kev.
I've got another two Entex 1/8 Lotus 72's sitting here.
One of them will be made into a Gold Leaf version after I finish with the Lola wreck...

All good fun.LOL LOL LOL
