Am I right in thinking it's this one:

It's the only bright green Bentley racer I've been able to find.

Yes it's coming on well but if I might say, you would be better
off using the black gaffer tape to hold the axle on.
I have been to the paint suppliers talking about BRG before now
and they say that there is no such colour. You can get around a
hundred shades of green, all of which are called British Racing
Green. some shades are very leafy whilst others are almost
black.
The French have a similar issue with French Racing Blue.

I was going to powder coat them black as per the Bentley.
'My BRG' will be bit lighter than original.
Engine mounting done.

Rolling (wobbling?) chassis now.
Swapped gaffer tape on front axle for exhaust clamps -
transformed directional stability!
Engine in (and out again)
Wish I could post a picture of the inspiration Bentley :'(

The rolling chassis is looking great, quite like idea of the
body being a mystery. Graham A.
