Does anybody know if there is a kit out there for the Rover SD1?
and is there a tank kit in 1:24th scale that includes the engine?
Some of you may or may not know that there is a 1:1 scale Rover with a 27ltr meteor tank engine (a N/A version of the Rolls Royce Merlin) powering it and I fancy giving that conversion a try, just finding parts is my next quest.:lol: do any of you know of anything that would be suitable? what do you think about this idea? comments welcome.

The only plastic kit of the Rover I have seen is the Heller 1/43.
Never seen or heard of one in any other scale.

Thanks Steve, I may look into casting a resin body from a diecast instead, either way I want this car in my collection even though it may be as much work to build a scale one as it must have been to build the real one :lol:
