Re: Ford Escort MK1 Roger Clark RAC Narton 1/24 Resin

Thanks for posting the pictures, I have always wondered about how good this kit is. My main concerns have always been the windscreen area, the shape just looks wrong in all photo's I have seen, but this detail is unclear from your shots. Any possibility of a couple of oblique views of the windscreen / roof join from both sides?

The suspension and brakes look very disappointing, you can scratch build and remedy these issues, but a fair amount of work is involved.

As is pointed out above no one else makes this car in this scale, and I think they are pretty much sold out everywhere. If you do not wish to build treat it as an investment that you will pass on in the future.

Hopefully some other boutique manufacturer produces this model in this scale sooner or later. I do not see any of the big manufacturers ever making a kit of the iconic Mk1 rally or street.
