What are they worth?

Hi All, Purely for insurance purposes, does anyone know of a site anywhere that gives ball-park figures for the current value of our priceless kits?

Yeah, I'd like to see that, with an optional snorkel and a fog horn just for Fuji... Sorry, I couldn't resist :-) Cheers, Paul Sydney Oz. BTW: Does anyone else recall ever seeing an F-1 race start behind the safety car with a rolling start? While this was the complete reverse of what happened at Nur...

Nige, I've been doing some testing of Indycal decals over Tamiya lacquer paint lately. I'm not aware of any Tamiya rattle-cans for Acrylic clear, but their bottled Acrylic clear can certainly be airbrushed **PROVIDED** you use Tamiya acrylic thinner X-20A. So far it appears that Tamiya's acrylic cle...

Ok ok, I'll go now...

Sadly it's an inherent part of aerodynamics that the car in front will always generate turbulance for the cars following. James and Martin talk about this all the time, as did Murray and James. Personally I don't like the modern idea of all these mid body winglets and add-ons. They look like a sheet...
