Focus - For the street!Lurchio 02-23-2006, 12:40 PM Finished this one just before Christmas. Was finished in a bit of a hurry in the end as I kinda got a bit fed up with it. Still was a good changce to practice some more skills! It's one of the Tamiya WRC Focuses (Focii???) not sure which now. I fitted new floors inside to hide the rally floorpan, reduced the roll cage - fit the big chrome 20's. The car also has a BMW M3 dash and centre console that I had kicking around from my previous M3 build (hence why the steering wheel is on the wrong side) At the time I got slightly disillusioned as Bossolani (hope it's spelt right) was building something very similar so glad I delayed posting until now. Was my first two colour paint job and had a few slight errors polishing when I broke the line slightly but still think it's one of my best polishing jobs (hope the pics do it justice). I love the colour mix but my mates hate it! I struggled to get the rear window to sit flush at the bottom but as I said I was kinda fed up by then and wanted to move onto my next project (a disater of a 348TS build that will never see the light of day on here!) Thanks for listening! http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00501.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00502.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00504.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00505.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00508.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00509.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00510.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e217/Lurchio1976/Focus/DSC00512.jpg ed.b 02-23-2006, 01:25 PM I like the color and the wheels, good job. And the steering wheel looks on the right side to me! :wink: I just scored an R/M Ford Focus SVT Tuner 2'N 1 Model for $2.99 on clearance at my local K-Mart. It's in the to-do pile but a peak in the box showed a nice kit with lots of extras. My plan is to just do a stock SVT build but we'll see when the time comes.
