    That's an absolute cracker! How did you get the chrome done? Is it just carefully done from the box or did you strip the original and re-chrome?

      Hi Dave, it's very carefully done from the box. the chrome on the windows, bonnet strip & all chrome on the trailer are done with chrome foil.

        Couldn't do that with this one I don't think. There's just too much flash - especially on the thinner parts like the arms for the mirrors.
