How long does it usually take to turn around the "average" model?

 

Colin in that blokes feedback someone wrote 'thanks alan' so either its a coincidence or its him lol

Matt, Pm me your address mate ill send you them decals

flash still making the interior look blue

hope you like it

 

Petey, did you get my last pm mate?

Looks dam cool that matt.

 

Still not 100% on the interior, but prob looks better in the flesh

 

thats looking good for your first attempt fella keep at it

 

thats looking good fella

 

cheers for all the kind comments lads im thinking i need to find a satin model paint laquer to take the shine off the purple parts of the interior

 

your welcome fella

that would look good mate

 

im still waiting on parts for the sierra cossie yb motor to arrive from steve before i can install it in my mk3 escort

 

just a quick update on my viper project,

i've done some more to the bodykit and i've also cut the grill out of the front bumper

 

just had another idea on the cossie please excuse the poor made up pic what do you thinl to silver wheel centres then i could put the oz wheel logos on too

 

that could look well smart fella go for it

 

im toying with the idea of making a strutbrace for my mk3 escort but not sure what to use to make it??

im not sure if i should use plastic or a piece of aluminium tubing flattened???

any ideas??

 

no way, just stick the silver and blue oz and ford racing stickers on it and will be dead on !

 

I like the wheels as they are.

Can you get a matting laquer spray?

 

does anyone know what the best material would be to make a strutbrace from??

 

no mate not had any for a while off you? send it again

 

My escort van is really looking good on the back, ive put the rear doors on and painted the lights on i will post some pics when ive done abit more tonite.

 

either would work if youve got any plastic model kits kicking about the spures could be used

mt oz wheel decals are red

im getting the impression i should leave well alone ive gone and got a tin of humbrol matt laquer hopefull that will do the trick

petey did you get mine??

red wouldnt show so well hence saying silver and blue

 

what about this idea

 

[quote=J1mbo;4879308]i know but i haven got silver and blue deacals and i suspect the blue would show up too well against the piurple

 

Sent.
Be good to see how it turns out.

The last idea for the wheels, is best I think.

 

i going to give the wheels a try i think thers just a bit to much purple on the car and im going to try matting doum the purple on the interior fingers crossed this will all work

 

[quote=roadstermatt;4879312]id go silver wheels then and deff have the stickers done
