I threatened to do this last year while we were talking about wind tunnels. It's the first stage of a 1/4 scale Coupe. To give you an idea of scale it's about 31" long and 14" wide Also in my garage are some scale wheels that i've had for years, a 24cc strimmer engine that needs a carb overhaul, and plenty of r/c gear. I'll be making moulds if anyone wants one of their own? More pics tomorrow hopefully.

Or has it been snowing? Might be interesting in the small wind tunnel we have at work. |

Neil That'd be cool. Quote: Some one else shops at Aldi then. Too right! I didn't think it was possible to spend £115 at Aldi in one hit - till they had a load of air tools in a couple of weeks ago. |

Pics have uploaded backwards to what I intended but: Donor car. Erm, Truck: And progress on bodyshell: Can of beer for scale purposes - Honest. I've started on the chassis too, but it's a bit of a bodge at the mo, so no pics.

Shouldn't be a problem The way it's looking, the body is going to be a kit in itself. Parts will be Main body, front clam, engine cover, both doors, both sills, and rr bumper - so more bits than the original. It's really making me realise how intricate the original shape is - if something is out by about 2mm it looks really wrong. |

And I want to point out that the only reason it is RED is because that's the only colour I had in a rattle can that I have no other use for. It's not going to be red as the finished article. |

All You've got to do now is develop the idea "turn the opposite way when it's coming towards You" |
