Very well done. I know the previous owner of the white coupe, the only example of this body style remaining in the world. He sold it to a collector in Seattle who had the body removed and put into storage after replacing it with a Monza replica body. Rather sad story. I believe your model represents how the car looked just after WWII when in England.

Very nice. I know very little about Pocher kits. Is this stock or with aftermarket add-ons?

Very, very nice. Forgive my ignorance, but is this 1/8 scale?

Thank you for your messages and visit
Yes it is 1/8 scale; the first model of the serie was produced in the late 60's (I think)
These kits need aftermarket add-ons and scratch parts to be more accuate (they also need patience to make the parts fitting well)
This was built about 12 years ago

Magnificent. This is a very realistic looking build.
