Ford Capri Gr.5 "Open Version " in progress

Ford Capri Gr.5

It's this time of the year again. Like in previous years, in this time of
the year I usually start a bigger modeling/modifying project and this year
is no exception. I've choosen to do Tamiya's Ford Capri Gr.5 (Item N°
24014). If you know this model maybe you'll start thinking why this project,
since it's not such a special kit at all.
That part is true of course, but if you've seen my previous big modifying
projects (CLK-DTM and WRC-Subaru), you know what to expect.
The Ford Capri is going to be build like shown in the attached picture of
the real thing, however the model will feature open doors and an opened
trunk as well.
The only addition to this kit will be the etched inserts for the rims.
Everything else will be done scratchbuilding. With this report I'd like to
share with you how I tackle such a big project and this from in the very
beginning.

Have fun with it. I'm looking forward to all comments and suggestions.
Cheers,
Kurtl
