WOW! :shock: That is HUGE! It looks great in the photos and congrats on achieving a holy grail piece. How did you hide this one from the wife? :rotfl:

Here is part two of my Holiest of Grails and it's the Awesome Amalgam 1/18, 1997 Thrust SSC ,1of5, #4 the only one signed by Andy Green, just short of 84cm long. Shown in some photos along side of the 1/10th scale Bloodhound previously shown. I do believe Amalgam have started back taking orders for this model again, i thought i had seen it advertised somewhere. Anyway these two models are beyond a dream come true and are at the top of the tree In my opinion, i love this too. Just need someone to bring out a Thrust 2 in 1/18th to further add to the grail record model group, would be a big seller.

Next up is a model i bought from my friend who i bought the previous two Holy Grail models from (plus some other stunners to show at a later date when i get time). It's the Tamiya 1/12, 1990 Ferrari 64 1/2 (F190) Built Kit, in Red. This is the Nigel Mansell version i believe from what it says on the model and a very nice looking one it is too. This has been sat on display for a long time and the tyres have flat spots so i have put some packing popcorn inside them to fill them out and hopefully over time they may become round again, if not i will have to hunt a new set of tyres for it, and also the back decal on the rear wing is flaking off so will have to look at that at a future date.

Up next is the start of some extra models i purchased when i picked up the Holy Grail Record models a few weeks ago, there are roughly 8 or so Handmade 1/12th models and all need some work to fix or do the best i can with them so will be adding them as and when i have the time. This is the MG Model 1/12 1971 Ferrari 712M Mario Andretti #50, in Red. I just had enough time before light was fading so some glue and other wet parts can be seen in some photos but now finished and cleaned it's a really nice looking model and quite happy with the result, roll on the next one i clean.
