Sorry about the picture quality, still on L plates with the camera. inspired by many cut and shuts on the forum i came up with this creature, hope you like it. The interior will be the dtm mercedes interior.

Which Cosworth Escort kit did that start life as?
It looks like an interesting project, I am interested to see the final outcome, since I am a HUGE fan of the Cossie and this one has me scared yet intrigued ;)

Not at all, I never like the Repsol livery ;)
I look forward to seeing more though.....
Race graphics would be good, what about a 2-tone paint scheme?

Very interesting project. I can't wait to see the outcome.
It's nice to have a breather from Japanese/American motors now and then. It's a shame that the manufacturers don't model more European cars.
I'm currently working on a road version of the Cossie. I tried to do a 'home made' flip tone paint, but it went all wrong:rolleyes: Now I have the task of sanding it down as I'm not sure about using brake fluid on the resin parts. I have purchased a nice China Blue metallic automotive paint as a replacement. However, I could change my mind again!
