Very nice! I really like the XK-SS photo for scale comparison.

Nice center piece, you sure know how to decorate!


Those XK-SS look great with the top up, did it come with one???

thanks. No, the XKSS didn't come with a top... I have pics of it without the top on it...

the truck and trailer are pretty fragile cause of all the small parts on it. I got another one I am keeping as a back up for this one, this is my "display" one. (well hard to display now, trying to get or make a display case, nothing fancy, just to keep evil dust off it)

let me put a few up (dinner tray for comparison)
