I like the little steering wheel on the boiler, just the right size for racing, and a detail amateurs neglect. -- Russ

Barney

Steering wheel on the large size due to the lack of power steering !

 Sorry, there is not much to get inspired about , as it is only three similar Churchill's unfinished and unpainted , made straight out of the box .
