Got this for Xmas.
This is a remake of an old Airfix Escort.
( not very good, oh well :frown: )

The front bottom corner was missing, so had to make that up first.

So because i'm making it into a Twin Cam had to build out the wings ( fender ).

I have found the right wheels for it.

As I say it will be very quick but helps to get the skill levels up.

This is going to be nice. Are you going to put a twink in it - scratchbuilt?
What colour you thinking of?
I will be following, keep up the good work.

Regards, Steve.

Looks good. Is this 1/24 and who makes the kit now?
I love the mk1 with a blue body and white roof

Hi, this is still made by Airfix.
The scale is 1/32nd.
My one was not very good, but they may not all be like that.

I'm painting it cream white as a show room car.

Cheers
