Thank you for reminder, I will get them to you this week.

Scaling sketches and metal cutting underway:
A NOTE ON IMAGES; IF YOU RIGHT CLICK AND OPEN IN NEW TAB YOU SHOULD SEE THEM. I thought I had uploaded from Flickr previously with more success, sorry that they didn't show, I'l come back and shange them shortly.



I was very lucky to work on this longtime favourite a few years ago.I had an idea that I would like to model or draw it one day so I but some very basic dimension photos. You Proxy was the perfect reason to dig these out.














Thank you Munter for putting this Proxy on..

Hello Eric

I have received the payment, thank you very much and have informed David Mitcham.

He should update the master list as I have done on my paper version.

Regards
John

a heads up when shipping your entry to the UK...

If you put a value of fifteen pounds or less then no customs duty will be charged.
It might also help to explain that it is a competition entry and will return to its country of origin.

I am sending my entry on Monday....I am tired of looking at it.

Hi Monte

Your car arrived this morning in good order. I gave it a short run this afternoon and all was working as it should. Please would you provide technical details on the car - body maker, motor, wheels and tyres, guide make, gears and gear ratio.

Best Regards

David

If all goes well - I'll have my car finished this week and shipped. It may arrive at the deadline or thereabout
I'm making my own wheels - and it's turned into a bit of a nightmare for breaking tools on my lathe.... But - I figured out the issue last night, so I'm just waiting on new tools to show up....

(I expect the hood ornament to last until the first turn.....lol....)

Good news CG....the body work does look good.

I tried to "Bullet proof" my car as much as possible by using lots of glue on the underside of the driver as his head will be the roll bar seconded by the screen uprights.

My car is with the scrutineer(David) already thankfully.

Nice job on that Bugatti body! Great details.
