"Ecclesley" won't mind me saying this, but he is nuts about Rolls-Royce and loves giving them his own personal touch. He has done many restorations and even creates models not made by the commercial companies, like a Dinky Toys Silver Wraith with the Bentley grille, hopefully he will show some of them on this forum, as I am sure that some of us collectors also dabble in a bit of model making, so come on Ecclesley, lets have a few more, DON'T BE SHY!

I am sure that forum members and in particular Nick Jones, wont mind me mentioning that a few of our members here, including "Cam" and "Ecclesley" are regular members of the 'Planet Diecast' site and if you want to see a lot more of "Ecclesley's" Rolls-Royce customs and restorations, go and have a look as a guest, but please, please remember where the real experts reside.. :lol:

Ah! I thought there was something familiar about your Quiralu item on the other thread. Hello Gerrit, what happened and why have you had to re-join here after your initial postings, welcome back, nice to see some more from you especially Rolls-Royce of course.

In that other thread, you had the pleasure of generating a reply from "Fixer" about opening a can of worms RE; another Rolls-Royce item for me to get my teeth into, however, now your back with us, I will have to stand down as the resident expert on all things Rolls-Royce and let you take over with your vastly superior amount of knowledge on these cars, so here you go, the stage is all yours.

Yes its true, I have been rumbled at last. I am not the expert you all thought I was. I have been plundering my knowledge and Rolls-Royce models information from another source and he has just rejoined this forum.
