New Releases

G'day All.... a little part (ok, major part) I've had on the go for the Alfas for a while. A new floor pan and angled panel.

Like a lot of my parts I design things over a long period of time, and make improvements as more recent reference images and info becomes available. I'd like to thank Nick ...

Re: New Part - Lucas C42 Generator

G'day Mike,

Thanks for the kind words as always. After a little delay due to me playing with the local wildlife (coming off second best), I am now getting back in to things and should be resuming projects shortly.

The under-bonnet Jag panels are the first new Jag item I'll be getting back to work ...

Re: New Part - Lucas C42 Generator

G'day Ed,

Thanks for the kind words, always nice to know the little things are noticed! They are the things that take a part to the next level in my mind. Definitely agree about the seam lines though.

Interesting thing about the lettering and arrows etc, when I design those in I have to make them ...

The much needed Electrical Generator - Lucas C42 type.

This little kit comes with the end plates. fan, pulley mounting bracket and upper adjusting bracket, and the internal commutator.

Reference Images of Alfa Monza

G'day All,

Thought I'd put up a notification of some beautiful photographs of a couple of Alfa Romeo Monza's. These are the real cars and will be very useful to anyone building these series of Alfas.

They are on the Leadfoot Models website under the Reference Images section - link below.

Re: Ed's Jaguar - Completed

G'day Ed,

Great pics and run down of the build. It's really nice to see my parts on a completed model, and those spoked wheels are my little pride-and-joy and look like they came out very nicely (if I do way so myself!), and of course big thumbs up to the installer and painter!! :D

The colour ...

Re: Yes it has been quiet here!

Yep.. I played a game of tag and lost that round!!! Am starting to feel a lot better and energetic. Would have been a bit better a bit sooner but as the snake was wrongly identified initially (my fault, and it was on dusk, and I didn't even think it was a snake anyway), then the treatment slightly ...

Knowing some of the projects you're working on I am sure they would also be of interest to the group, and I know I can speak for us all that we look ...
