      I'm already subscribed, you got me started on the Titanic! I'm building that along with the Enterprise refit. Just got to finish wiring the circuit board and she'll be done.

    I have a friend that bought the first 25 stages or so of the Eaglemoss collection from somebody else and Agora is going to let him pick up from where he left off to complete it which is amazing! I'm so happy for him!

    Just to add to your technical vocabulary Wayne, for chromed plastic pieces if you say “Vacuum Metalized” it’ll gain you Kudos points with the boys over the pond. It’s raining today, but as usual your daily video (me car man) is a lovely, cosy mornings watch. Love ya Wayne!!!

    for the screws, rather than a lubricant, I'd be tempted to use say Permatex orange - holds like red, moves like blue - to give some lubrication during assembly and then slightly harden, to prevent loosening under thermal changes or handling.

    Looks good Wayne but I am waiting for the 007 series. I already have the old Eaglemoss DB5. Always gets me that you have the bonnet in the first pack that never seems to be fitted until the final stage, in my case 2 years later, along with so many tiny parts.

    That fuel pump as u said, i think thats an early mechanical fuel injector, i watched a repeat of Wheeler Dealers which they had a BMW 2002tii and that had a similar fuel pump, and i believe was called a kugelfisher(?) which use a camshaft to dispense fuel into the cylinders.

    Beautiful car, a true must have, when it comes to oil I'm just using good old WD - 40 👍

    • @Thalon77
      @Thalon77 Год назад

      WD40 is quite aggressive and could corrode some type of plastics, I would suggest hair clipper oil instead: it's light, it doesn't smell, it doesn't stain and it doesn't corrode anything.

    In the photo the headlights look blue in colour. So they must be using a wrong colour temperature LED, the real lights would be almost a yellow colour.

  • @petermcelvogue7521
    @petermcelvogue7521 Год назад +2

    They should’ve given you the option of the knockoff Rudge wheels that came as an option on the 300SL. Maybe Mike Lane can come up with a Mod for them.

  • @richardschindler8822
    @richardschindler8822 Год назад +1

    Absolutely love this car. Such an iconic beauty. You know I’ll be following your build.
    So the $10,000 question. Is this the Eaglemoss kit re released or is it a completely new kit? The reason I ask is, the ad for the kit on the Agora site says that if you didn’t get all the parts from Eaglemoss that the Agora parts will fit so you can complete your kit.
    Cheers, have a great day

    I still think the Cobra was the best detailed Agora model.

    • @Loulovesspeed
      @Loulovesspeed Год назад

      @RWHobbies - I have both the 427 SC and just got the W196R. The engine alone in the W196R is infinitely more detailed than the Cobra's 427. Both are great models, but the W196R wins the high detail award hands down!

  • @rickgregory9616
    @rickgregory9616 Год назад +1

    Personally, I would prefer these builds not to start off with any body parts. Hood, doors etc. Keeping them pristine until needed is a pain. I love the fact that the working henge for the Steering Wheel is preinstalled. Those tiny hinges can be tricky, especially if they are push-twist in, like the Cobra. Mine broke and I had to Jury-rigg a fix.

    Here you did with front bonnet is wrong!. So the support rod must go through holes of bonnet end of the edge (both sides). There only four holes(total). That you did not look at instruction (Picture) Fig 01!!!!
