1959 Aston Martin DBR1/300/2 Shelby/Salvadori Le Mans winner It took a lot of sole searching to alter Grahams beautiful shell, I hope I do it justice. Here's where I'm at as of this afternoon. Once the filler dry's I will rub down and then remove the canopy, gulp!    Brian |

I have made progress with the DBR1 and it nears completion. I have received my Vallejo face painting set and have a little work to complete Shelby's face. Then it's Matt finish for him and clear for the car. Oh yeah and I need to fabricate the exhaust.     |

Disappointedly some of the decals have reacted to the clear coat, but what can you do. Exhaust and canopy to complete. Had a eureka moment with the light lenses. I think they look great......the secret is cellotape!     |

Just in case you wonder if it was all worth it, it was!

Thanks Peter.
The decal issues a side I am pleased with how the Aston is turning out.
I'm off on my Holidays today and I will complete this build on my return, then I need to choose my next build.
I have 7 to choose from.
