Cool Mercedes A- Klasse DTM Racing

Hi,

Some years ago I built this “Phantom-Racer”.

It is the Revell A-Klasse-model, from which I used body, windows and chassis. The lower part of the body was replaced with parts of a Tamiya DTM C-Klasse Benz. Interior parts, front and rear, wheels and some decals came from the Tamiya kit, too.

Very nice, to bad it couldn't race, it would end up on roof
Nicely combined parts.

That's badass, I would never have thought of converting that car to a DTM; I guess you can do it with just about anything.

Re: Mercedes A- Klasse DTM Racing

I think that phantoms of every kind is fun! Especially race-phantoms! Saw a New Beetle a few years ago in the same DTM-style.Also a phantom.
Seen a 50`s Ford PU as a stockcar e.t.c.

When will some one build a crossover phantom?
Like a Ford `32 roadster meets F1?
More Phantoms please!! Good work on the MB A-klasse by the way..

Re: Mercedes A- Klasse DTM Racing

Hehehe. Awsome conversion. Does anyone happen to know if the revell is the same tooling as the fujimi?
Keep up the great work.

Maybe this version would have all the standard electronic gizmos to keep it on the road

I think it really looks great, the first A-class which doesn't look like one to be blown of the road by a little breeze.
