Thanks alb! :D
I always loved those ones. They bring sooo god memories.
The CDN rain 811 is so nice, and the Rothmans 821s, I always found them so elegant...

Then the ATS, specially the '80 one and the rounded '82. I honestly love them.
One thing I hadn't commented. You know sometimes when you build a model you end up tired of seeing it, and that spoils the "WOW effect" well before you finish.
In this case, as it was all of 13!!! cars, and I worked as if though in a production line on them, even if bodies were well known, I was really thrilled when I saw them with theit wheels on.

Other thing: painting tyres with Revell acqua colors is sooo easy and the effect is soooo rubber!

Many thanks James for posting and congratulations on an impressive collection of own-designed and built kits!

I am a bit biased but really like the Minardi, how many versions did you build now?
