Here I am!
Hello fellas!
My name is Marco, I'm 34. I work as a purchasing manager for an IT company here in Italy. I live in Monza, many of you speed nuts certainly knows the Italian Temple of Speed... I'm completely mad about cars and bikes, mainly historic racing models but also classic and modern sportscars. I own a Yamaha XS650 and a Honda CB400SS Four which is undergoing a complete stripping and rebuilding as a Cafè Racer (clip-ons, rearsets, vtr tank and seat...) and a modern GSX-750 (the naked version, very similar to '70 Z1000 with upswept rear fender). As far as concern cars I daily drive a diesel A3 but as I find time I have a trip with my grandad Merc 220Seb Coupe or with my Mini Cooper... My dream cars are Porsche 917K, GT40, Jag XKSS and Ferrari 330 P4 (none of them, I know, will ever be within my possibilities :-( ) Hope to learn a lot from you, devils of the detail! Cheers, Marco

Re: Here I am!
Well! This is a WELCOME!
I'm not a modeler as good as you boys... My favourites subjects are vintage rallying and racing cars, I'm currently building a Monte Mini Cooper S and a modified racing AH Bugeye... I've seen many of your works and I have to admit that people in this Forum are damn good! I'm avidly studying your techniques and triks to become a better modeler... Thank you fellas!
