Title: Pyro Model T
Post by: Carpo on January 21, 2013, 07:28:09 PM

Hi all,
This is a quick conversion I carried out leading up to the construction of the WnW Snipe diorama I have in mind.....
It is the Pyro kit (same kit as Des is using to build his Hucks starter.)
I really haven't done that much in the way of detailing - just some ignition leads in the engine bay and a bit of work in the 'cockpit' that you can't see anyway.

Thanks to Des for pointing us in the direction of these old kits.

I have the Renault town car still to do - but that is some time away yet.

That looks very nice Paul, you have done a great job with what is a very basic kit, I just hope mine turns out half as good.

For anyone wishing to find an old 1:32 scale car kit try looking here;   http://members.ziggo.nl/dwijsman/

Gorgeous, Paul!  I love the oil stains in the bed.  Will the truck be delivering a rotary engine?
Cheers,
Bud

Hey Bud,
You know I pictured a Rotary in the back of the truck too! Great minds think alike......
Steve - I figure if I talk about the snipe enough it will materialise
snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe, snipe,(sung to Monty Python's SPAM)

Thanks all - If only Airfix would re-release their ww1 vintage bus....
