Unfinished Stratos Kits

I really mean 'hardly started' rather than 'unfinished'.
I know there were never that many at any one time, but now, you never see them at all.

Why is that?

There was this:

and this from way back in 2012:

'Can't think of any others recently?

Probably all the ones that have sat under a tarpaulin in the UK have disintegrated and aren't saleable.

Or ...... the owners are thinking that they have "historic kits " in hands ( like Gold bars!!) and it's better to leave them for a while like Bank pension funds !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On an other hand some years ago someone was posting in a thread that Hawk have been producing during all those past years 600 kits ......
So there are at least 499 tarpaulins (or barns ) undiscovered to dig out !!!!!!

Can you remember a guy called Mark (Chamberlin ??) who was a friend of Dave Clarks ?... they both hired a double garage to build the cars side by side, it was over at Ticknall near Calke Abbey in Derbyshire.

I don't know wether or not Mark ever finished or sold his car ?.... if I remember right they were both going to spray their cars the same "Chardonnet" blue.
