Hi Bram,
Well done! Nice details! Keep up the good work. I really like those 'small'
models (small, because mine are much bigger as you know).
I want to build a 1:13 scale Opel Corsa for my DAF 95XF ballast trailer
truck. The car is used to drive home when a large crane is on a work for a
few days. One problem: I'm not into cars. I'll see. If I haven't got the
car, it won't be a problem. The truck is almost ready. I will post a message
when it's updated.
