MG MGB GT V8 Factory Originals Technical - V8 in miniature

My other hobby, apart from my full size V8, is modelling cars. I have recently done a V8 roadster, which cannot be found in kit form. If anyone is interested in models it is published on http://www.modelersite.com (put mgb in the archive search and submit.) If you have a look and are not familiar with model scales this one is six inches long and the V8 motor is about one inch across by one and a half long. What the hell - it keeps me out of trouble!!!!!

Martin
To borrow a line from you report:
"Was it worth it? I will let you be the judge"
My judgement is ABSOLUTELY!

An excellent rendition and truly a credit to you.
I am a kit builder myself but definitely not to that standard.
An excellent model and a great site as well.
I have bookmarked it and will peruse it further when time permits.
Cheers, Pete.

Very nice Martin!

Ihave been thinking about something lie that, though not nearly as much custom work. I am trying to find a kit then get a mustang or other 302 vehicle of the same scale to take the engine out of so I can make a miniature of my car. heh that will have to wait till I get the real car finalized though..
