So good to see you back! I had a 'spring clean' of KZfaq sites a few weeks back, and binned nearly 60. I didn't bin yours, though - I had a feeling that you might return, and we could enjoy your frankly extraordinary handiwork again. And you have not disappointed. Nice to see you using what we called in the 1970's, 'Goop'. A bit of a rite of passage for the modeller, this. All your kit frames, (AKA. 'Sprue') cut into small bits and added to a jar containing Windsor And Newton's 'Winsol' solvent. Keep adding styrene bits until no more dissolves - in the '70s, kits were in all kinds of colours, so you had a jar of stuff that was the colour of something really unpleasant, the consistency of honey, and which smelled of a chemical works on a bad day. And yet, it stuck, filled, could be built up in thin layers, and when dry, cut, drilled, filed, and painted. Wonderful stuff. And so much easier to get than proper, kosher plastic filler. Keep the goop flag flying, sir. The name 'goop' came from, I believe, the old Airfix Magazine. Glad to see you back, as I said, and that FIAT looks wonderful. A bloke up my road had a bog standard Mirafiori, and that went like stink. I can vouch for that, as he gave me a lift into work a few times in the early 1980's.

@SidewaysKing75 4 ай бұрын

Thank you very much and for this wonderful walk down memory lane.... I'd all but forgotten the term 'Goop' too!! Whilst I appreciatee 3D printing and the technique it tkaes to print them and design them in the first place, I still enjoy the hand built work more. Its good to be back, thanks for sticking with me 🚗😁👍

Amazing job! So many people put a ton of work into the exterior and then skip painting the interior to give it more realism. Always seems like a shame, so it's nice to see someone actually use that to their advantage.

@@SidewaysKing75 I really² luv dat car .... it was red with big Alitalia 'A' at the rear side panel .... at idle, the hood will shake coz the Webbers are close to it or the mounting was shot (I was 9) In mid 80s, did Matchbox released a limited run off Shelby AC Cobra with a rubber Goodyear tyres + other make/model cars also with Goodyear rubber wheels? ... I used to have one but I can't remember who made it. (Definitely Not Hot Wheels) Majorette's Renault 5 turbo/R5 Turbo wud be great next to the Fiat 131 Abarth

Hey, bud, awesome to see you back again! Can't wait to see what you cook up next! I am pondering leaving the platform this year because of how sick it's getting and I just can't handle it anymore at my age but I am staying for the time being. I also have a health condition that's catching up with me and it's beginning to make things a bit difficult, so if I do leave it'll be mainly to preserve my mental and physical health. It all just isn't what I once knew. 😔 I'll never forget you, man, you were one of the precious few who made YT videos worth watching in a time when everything was complete bonkers.
