Congratulations!

You have a beautiful collection of Brabhams!
I visited your blog and was left with some "envy", because I'd like to have time to build half of what you have! :shock:

Thanks for sharing!
Best regards,
Sérgio

Hi Teles,

I have seen reallife pictures of all these cars before, but seeing the models at the same time in one spot finaly made me realise, how many different versions existed!

There is at least one BT42, right?
The Ian Ashley car (#42 The Chequered Flag) with a different frontsuspension.

By the way: Have you done the modifications on these cars yourself? I don't recall having ever seen a modelkit with the nose of the already mentioned #42 car.

Anyhow: It is a terrific collection you have build! Congratulations!

Long time not appearing here, sorry for the delay my friends.
Thank you very much for your king words, I really enjoyed to do these BTs and will make more "in line assemblies" in the future.
Yes Steffen, there's a BT42/44 there, the Ashley's car. I changed almost all the front and suspension (will make new photos soon with the final result, as the model is now - when I did these pics some little parts was missing like rods, air ducs and head rests).
And yes, I made all the modifications (including airboxes, all home made except the Martini version, the only stock airbox I used).
As I really like "family pics" in the next week I'll do photos of all models together.
Cheers.
