Cheers for the links dude. His MG is a 79/80, actually one of the last 500 made! He would probably give his right arm for one of the '40s ones so a model of one would probably wind him up!
I have been going through about a thousand links on glue-it.com but just haven't quite found what we wanted. I have found some U.S sites that do large scale wooden models that were quite cool but not found anything similar on this side of the Atlantic. If all else fails I will go with the old faithful Borders vouchers!
