Re: National Rally photos

Fair enough if a car is low mileage, rare or in really nice rust free condition then keep it original or restore it to original. But if the said car isnt and you save it from a scrap yard or field is it not better for the owner to build the car how they wish, then allow the car to be scrapped or to ...

Re: Plastic model of Morris 1000?

There is a guy in the USA under the name Model King who reproduces old AMT kits, I am not sure if he does the Revell ones, maybe he could be contacted about the Revell traveller kit?

Re: Plastic model of Morris 1000?

I just google searched " Revell Morris traveller" and found one image of the box, and it looks amazing :o
If enough of us were to email Revell do you think they would put it into production again? I have noticed an Austin Healy kit fairly recently over here however it was rather expensive.

And thank y...
