Another bump for one more taker.

I was hoping from today until the end of the year but I can do from the end of may just to make sure that we have enough takers.

no worries, it would be at least a fortnight before i can start cos of what else is on the bench

Same here I have a kit that's just giving me lots of grief it's going to take me that long to bash it into shape.

I am all for starting 1 May, Pete thanks for getting this together I’ve been wanting to build another one of these for a long time and the trailer

Just had a dig around in the attic and found the Panther, opened the box and realised why it's been up there for nearly forty years. It's an utter dog of a kit though I may be able to use the scenic base.

So I had a quick look on Amazon and ordered one of these. I don't normally build French subjects, but I remembered wanting to build it when I was a kid but couldn't afford it.

Thanks Pete

[Ian M]

I have set up the forum. Well done Pete. PLEASE wait for Peter to make the introduction befor you all start prattling away in the chat section.
You are welcome as normal to start your build thread as per normal- As the start date was the 1st of May. you can even get on with it.
Remember though that the usual sprue and box photos in your first build post.
Also as there are a great many old matchbox kits that have been re-issued by other makers, I ask that if at all possible, a screen print or a link to it from scalemates showing that it is a re-pop of a Matchbox kit. (otherwise it would be to easy wouldn't it) to be included at the start of the post.
