Bob Bickel's 1930 Blower Bentley UR6571

Here is my Airfix 1/12 scale 1930 Blower Bentley, registration UR6571. I weathered it inside and out, as if raced in foggy England and then put away to dry. Scratchbuilt modifications include metal screening to replace the plastic kit parts for the headlight stone guards, fuel tank stone guards, blower stone guard and stone guard for windshield; wiring and plumbing; fabric boot; piano hinges for hood; leather hood straps to replace fakey kit parts.
