    Stefees Monogram 1/24 1947 MG TC, modelling my first car.

    Hi everyone,
    Well this has been a chore as the 1982 kit is really rubbish. The plastic was waxy and soap-like meaning flatting down was a nightmare, loads of flash, ejector pin marks, sink holes and extremely poor or non existing mounting points. The instructions were rudimentary at best and no decals. The chrome was way too thick so was stripped and Proscale paints chrome paint system used with reasonable but hard wearing results.
    As the only game in town at this scale I did my best to build a replica of my 1st 1:1 car.
    Comments and criticisms welcome.

      Can't mistake a TD. Beautiful finishes, especially wood dashboard.
