Great modelling of those bombed houses. We used to have great fun, playing on bomb sites.

Horizontal every time.

Nice neat work, Richard.

Hi Artem,

....nostalgia calls. I had a 107E, 4 door ohv with a 4 speed box. Enjoyed that tale. Two tones back in the day. Loved them. Was yours just like this one? Exactly, except for the visor.
