Jay DubyaFor a self-confessed Ferrari Man you've done a beautiful job, albeit with great subject matter. Gotta love those old Alfas !!!

😄Hi J W... Thanks for that, glad you like it, positive feedback is always inspiring😢
It did take 28 years from start to finish though. But in my defence it did get forgotten about for 27 and a 1/2 of those years, lost in a little used lock up in the vastness of Lord Wilsons Estate. Lol (((😄 )))
There is natural bond between Alfa and Ferrari, it's through and because of Alfa, that Enzo became who and what he was! Ferrari recognize this. If you look at this years F1 car, on the rear side of the engine cover is the Alfa insignia. People wonder why it's there, has it got an Alfa Engine? they say! But no, it's because Alfa and Ferrari's association with each other is 95 years old this year, and this is their recognition of it, does make you think, what will they do in 2020 though???
Yes I'm a Ferrari Man, but I also value roots, I'm also researching my own geneaology when time allows🤔
Album info
I've added pictures of a couple of kits I've found and forgot about in my labyrinth of Lord Wilson's vast Estate and storage places, of a time when my stash/collection was amazingly greater than it is now. I will be adding some other finds this weekend as well.
They are Revival kits of the Alfa Romeo P3 1932 - 1935, one started. I felt it deserved to be part of...
The Neglected Kit Resurrection Groupbuild thread. So please see the pics. I finished the kit this week just past with no real problems, I couldn't understand why I hadn't finished it before, then I remembered I'd forgot I had it. But I do remember buying them, I got them in the late eighties, at Kempton Park Toy Fair. I bought two because the guy had a stack of them and they were cheap!!! I had at that time, a habit of starting a kit putting it away, doing a 2 to 3 week Coach tour, then starting a new kit when I got back, getting another tour and so on, so the cycle continued. I now keep finding started kits in the strangest of places...
