I built the original Bentley back in 1972/3...I seem to remember satin chrome and full shiny chrome supplied. I'm now making the 'new' version, I don't remember so much 'chrome' on the engine (but that may the passage of 50 years !!)...also the plastic mouldings (I presume from the original moulds) are really not good enough on a kit costing nearly £100....I certainly don't remember having to spend hours scraping and filing back so much extruded plastic flash...still, wallowing in yesteryear is making me happy....Here's a snap of me with the earlier 1972 version with a Matra car...both long long gone (but where ??)
