I thought Iâ€™d seen this Valiant before, hereâ€™s some more pictures and info. of it prior to its demise. Just click on â€˜Simon Steggallâ€™s Valiantâ€™:

Such a pity it crashed it looked a stunning model and huge too judging by the picture of it stood on itâ€™s nose against a two store building!!! :shock: .

Also worth a look is â€˜Keith Mitchellâ€™s 33% Hunterâ€™.
