How my decals coming on mate?
Escortnutter.
same question mate.

 

Im suprised, i thought there would of been more pages than this????
must be cause i aint on lol lol

 

more than one uk forces used the cossie

not sure but i suspect as well as humberside the metroplitan & essex used them if only in a pr stunt with dagenham and i would think they saw service on the motorways

 

i tell a lie i said i had no money for any models at the mo but just got another mk3 cab to do another rs cab that i like and will keep lol

 

heres the porsche cab ive started








starting to shape the header rail

 

looking good matt

 

cheers

 

just thinking would it not save a bit of work if you cut off the original windscreen frame and put the cab one on?
would mean you could mask the join in the standard panel gap and there wouldnt be an ugly cut line on the top of the frame

 

i thought about it but ive took somuch strength out of the shell i dont know if it will suvie it plus ive drawn round the original so i can file it down to the same shape if this goes pete tong ive got the frame from the yellow on to graft on

 

got my transit now came in the post today and my dad opend it and said another model lol will get pics later when cameras charged

 

Had this one turn up today

Oh i wish. But i'm still saving for one of Petey's

aint it worth putting on ebay????????

 

Dave do you know if Steve's posted my yb yet mate?

 

will ask him tonight...

 

That's where it will go just thought I wld ask on here first

 

Cheers mate.

 

i remeber u showing us pics before.
i wouldnt mind it myself.

 

has anyone got a 1/18 turbo or can make one up for sale at all?

 

U on bout escort rs turbo?

 

no sorry what i ment to say was after the actual turbo unit

 

will be on ebay at the weekend if no offers

 

this is progress on series 2 front bumper, still lots to do yet but the basic shape is starting to take place now.still need to add to bonnet and sort out loads of details but u get the picture.

 

thats looking well good dave
is that a resin copy of an autoart bumper? was it easy to do?

 

well spoted pete, cant fool you
its actually being a f@!ing bitch to get looking right. the autoart bumper was miles to big so have had to reshape it. still got the bottom air intake bits to sort as it is meant to go right across .

 

nice one, the bottom air intake should be pretty easy just means cutting out that lower section and moving it back then blending it, same with the central bar where the number plate is- im guessing the hard part would be keeping it stuck together lol

do you reckon if i was to send you some bumpers could you copy them at all mate? had an idea for a future project today but that could make it happen sooner if you could lol

actually how would i go about doing it? i might have a go myself if its simple enough, saves you and steve the hassle all the time lol

 

Looking good.

Slowly getting there with mine lol

 

When i lived in Tonbridge they had one Kent police.

 

That the one that used to be around the medway area?

 

send it over ,will chuck in when iam moulding something else.what u got planned or is it a secret..

 

This is looking good mate, cant wait to see this finished, remember when the kits all done i would like 1, when will it be finished mate?????? and is it still gon be around Ł20/Ł25 for the full kit, thas what u said about 2/ 3 months ago, keep me posted mate cause i cant wait to get 1 of these

 

Got a new model today, picks later.

 

how do u take off the wheels on the 1/18th transits

 

sweet thanks mate
