I have gone and bought a penrhyn carriage to modify,
Sorry I just cannot build something without putting my touch on it!!
I got it today and the body is allready built, the seats are my carriage olive green and I shall teak it up to look all lovely!I may put a roof onit!
How is yours coming along?

It isn't.

I've got to get a new set of paintbrushes, and new wheelsets.

i also have one of these kits. fully painted and almost complete.

really like the idea of working brake gear but, on the two soul bars only one has a holder for the brake gear and its on the same side as the one with the holder for the actual lever so i need to knock myself up another one and align it accordingly.

I know if I tell Ivan he will send me out another but for the sake of a 15 minute job i think its not worth it. hes already been more than generous with me in the past so I think I can sort this one on my own.
