Making headlight covers - Carver - 27th-Nov-21

I've found a good source for making headlight covers.

New brushes are often protected by a clear plastic tube, sometimes soft, sometimes harder. The hard kind is ideal for this purpose.

Great idea, Carver. 

If you know of another 1/32 Lola GT. Kindly let me know?

I wish I knew, boys! But in this neck of the woods (Sweden) these are seldom seen. I was happy to grab a wreck...
They are likely more easily found in the New World at your side of the pond, Ken.

As you may know, the  Lola moulds seem to be lost. Unlike many of the Monogram models, it was never taken over by MRRC to be reproduced.

Btw, the MRRC bodies now seem to slowly disappear from the market.  

I am glad I got some of them while I could...

I've found false fingernails useful for making headlight covers. I got a load of them cheap on eBay.

Cheers,

John
