Gowran Brookes 2018

First of the “not so common” Brookes cars .

Looking good, James/

Nice. Ixo base?

Nice

Forgot to add that this was the collaboration of 4 people including Chris (CDM) who kindly sent the white Michelin deals for the rear. It was also my first ever attempt a decaling so the poorly cut and crooked ones are mine !!

Nice

No stopping you now James!

Looks great, its going to be some display. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh

James

Not many will know that Russell was driving that Manta.

Nice conversion.

Chris

Looks great, as said, not many will connect Brookes and this livery, its nice the surprises this forums members can give

Probably bit off a bit more than I can chew but had a go at this tonight

Looks great to me

Nothing wrong with that!

Not sure whats going on with my photos lately but only the left half are appearing.

Good man James. Would love to be going down to see it. Very best of luck

You can see them all James when you log on via a PC - i have the same issue when viewing on a tablet or phone the right hand side is chopped off. Look great again!

Looking well, hope the event goes well and I'm looking forward to seeing pictures soon

Great work, James - good luck with the display.

Great display as usual from James along with a few loaners from Juha an Donie. Some collection of M3 BMWs Also good to meet Brian and view some of his 1/18s and GXI collection.

Looks like I can only post 3 photos at a time.  Russell Brookes came to visit us -as ever a lovely man.  
Huge thanks , as ever, to a band of guys who pitched in:
Brian who brought his collection of 1/18's which always is a big hit with visitors,  he helped with set up and stripdown down as well of course being responsible for creating a number of new one off models,
Sean who again helped with the task of strip down and reboxing models created decals for some one off models,
Juha who sent over models and memorabilia for the Snijers display and
Donie who got me out of a hole at the last minute when I couldn't find a few models of my own.

Thanks to Peter for the photos . One of the photos show Russell with a model specially created by Sean which went down really well - a distressed model which bore the scars of his accident.  We were also fortunate to have John Leahy with us who brought his collection of Brookes memorabilia.

Well done James and others on yet another stunning display.

So whats next???….we cant wait!!!!

Chris
