Now that's a business car that means business! And an outstanding testament to styrene construction.

Thanks guys. This looks like a wrap-up of this project, it's been fun.

AL ARMITAGE, wherever you are, this model is dedicated
in the memory of you and your love for styrene modeling.

As far as I can figure, this model is 98 or 99% styrene.

Cheers,

Bob

Something was bugging me, I knew there was one more thing I wanted to add to that car but I
couldn't think of it.

Then it hit me, I had forgotten the brake wheel. It's there now and yes, it's styrene.

Thanks very much Bob!
50 years have gone by pretty fast!
And seem to be picking up in speed!

This coach that you named after Al Armitage, has turned out just beautifully Bob!
I would not expect anything less coming from you.
And I am certain that Mr. Armitage would also be very happy to have his name on it.
As I am very proud to have been made into a very respectable looking passenger, traveling with my wife on this lovely coach.
It's always a pleasure to watch you craft these really fine models you make Bob.
You really are a true master craftsmen and a inspiration to all!
And I hope you have many many more projects to share with us in the future!
Thanks for making Adi & I, a part of this FANTASTIC coach named Armitage!

Although I dont comment as often as I should in this thread, whenever I visit I am inspired and in awe.

Happy belated Greg, I havent checked in for a day or two, but the sentiment is the same, I'll still raise a glass for you..

Hello All,
I haven't gone anywhere. Nor have I posted in a while. I am also an airplane modeler and I have
long had a love affair with the aircraft of the Golden Age, 1920's and 1930's, and like to
build models of the aircraft of that era. I have been working on a couple of them, early Northrops.
However, I have not entirely givin up on this string. I have been looking around for my next
structure project. I have come up with three that I would really like to do but when I lay
them out in 1/24 scale they are simply TOO BIG.

Back soon.

Bob

Good to hear from you Bob!
I would be very interested in seeing you build a aircraft!
And regarding the other 3 projects being to big that's too bad for us.
Whatever you decide to build, I am certain of 2 things,It will made from styrene & it will be spectacular!
Now hurry up and decide!
