Hey Andy cruiser guy lomas.....have you been doing some bodywork for others now.....

Is that meant to go underwater? Looks like it probably has a depth rating of 300m plus - just need some torpedo tubes to finish the look!

Seen that one before and love it even if it is only for decoration .

I'd have eaten my own hand if you didn't like that one mate. You were the first person I thought of when I saw it

Little known fact that Toyota employed the same development techniques that Supermarine used when working out what areas on a Spit needed flush rivets and what could be domed rivets that were cheaper and easier to use..... Supermarine stuck split peas to flush rivets on the fuselage of a spit and then test flew it and it lost a huge amount of performance ..... they then gradually removed them to find the areas that had no affect .... this prototype 80 was pictured in the early days of development . ;-)

Landrover tried something similar but it disintegrated when it sank .
