Hi Danny thank you for the Info very kind!.. I got the heavier card 420 gsm from amazon. 2.99 for 10 A4 cards.. I'll go to GPM see how much they are I'm not really bothered about the price just so long as this ship gets the best.

Gidday David.
The cars in The French connection. In one scene the cops pull up in a '68 Pontiac Bonneville, pretty much my car, there's also a Lincoln Continental that is brand new. Daily drivers in this movie are insane.
All the best.

that was some film that! did you recognise the driver in that film? he was the hit mans driver in Bullitt! Dodge charger!

Gidday David.
The Charger now there was an insane car. All that power with cross ply tyres and drum brakes. Crazy times. How good was Bullitt?
All the best.
Mark.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
