Hi,

I have finaly finished my rebuild BT48.
Like most of my builds not that great, not like some of you build your cars, but I'm happy with it. Although the decals where really not very good. I know James you warned me about them.

It is not "a" kit, but a rebuild BT50. it has a changed engine and front wheels from the BT46 in it and hase some parts changed by myself or from other kits. Decals and rollover-bar are from the AMD BT48.

It one of many Brabhams that I want to have. I would like to have all Gordon Murray Brabhams. His desings of the Brabhams, to me, are among the best looking cars in F1 history. I have already a few of them, build and unbuild. But wil probebly not have all his Brabham's. But then never say never.

Great projekt, nice build. Like you i like the Brabhams. Really, i like most of the 60, 70 and 80:s cars. Even the fist years of the 90:s are looking good. Hopefully we can see more of your projects i the future. Ceep up the good work.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the nice comments. I'm pretty happy with it myself. But I have done better jobs at times. Biggest problem was basicly the decals. Specialy the lines on the front of the car.

The Gordon Murrat range of Brabhams I have are:

BT44b (old AMD release) unbuild
BT45 (Iritani) build
BT45b (wil change a Iritani BT45, not to difficult) unbuild
BT46 (Tamiya) build
BT46b (MFH) unbuild
BT48 (rebuild Tamiya) build
BT49 '80 (AMD) unbuild
BT49 '81 (AMD) build
BT50 (Tamiya) build
BT52 (MFH) unbuild
BT52b (Fatocy T'z transkit) build
BT53 (rebuild Tamiya) build
BT55 (MFH) unbuild

So I'm missing the BT42 (did ACE did this one not to long ago?).
The BT44 just reasontly released by ACE aswell.
And the BT54 (not done AFAIK but as AMD planned this one, maybe ACE will do this one aswell). But maybe I will just do it myself on a Tamiya BT50 BMW engine base (still with some other Tamiya's.

So if I will have all these I'm not to sure, specially the BT42 and 44. But most will get in my cabinet if I ever have the time to build all my unbuilds.

Just found out and rememberd that ACE has already done the BT54 aswell.
