Thanks for the tip on the lowering of the transit in progress as we speak lol

Also had a thought for the model motivation guys!

Can you cast some mk2 escort mirrors as one piece solids as they seem to be very prone to breaking (Or maybe iam to ham fisted lol) Oh and revoloution alloys as there proper old skool

And bucket seats and 3 door recaros roll tops would be ace too
