Don't know if any of you have heard of Dave Clark Designs?

If you haven't I think some of you might like the following, although they are out of the pocket of many of us I wanted something special and commissioned Dave to 'create' a CSL special I'll be asking him to start building in a few weeks...

Interesting... did you get your sculpture yet and what scale?

No not yet, dragging on now! ...he's swamped with work apparently...
I've gone for 1/12th scale...
1/12th - Car length 360mm with Base length 450mm
1/10th - Car length 420mm with Base length 500mm
1/8th - Car length 540mm with Base length 600mm

John, I mean this sincerely but there's just too much of the glorious Cecil rear missing in that sculpture, for my liking.
As for scale, I agree with your choice of 1/12th

BTW... welcome back

Yup, I know what you're saying, Dave's idea is that it represents speed and fade to the rear.
I like it (obviously), they do look great in the flesh, will post piccies when I get it...
