I'd take C with a decent coat of paint. And just to irritate traditionalists, put a modern ford coyote engine in it.

I put in for the f100 and imposter first, the rest just hold no interest for me.

I was driving along side a new Charger Hellcat yesterday, well..... Until he decided to put his foot down. That sucker sounds angry!

Cool news! I hope this works out, I've always liked the interceptor. Does anyone remember the very heavily worked over Viper powered interceptor from a bit back.

I had heard as much, I'm guessing the big issue is the lack of a main sponsor. I'm sure that will drive the livery as much as anything. I hope Mclaren finds them self a title sponsor soon, otherwise they may end up going the way of Marussia and Caterham. Honda isn't going to make up the shortfall forever.

Thanks for the link JC. I had figured that it was camo more than a livery, which is a shame as it looks quite nice. I hope Horner is right about this years proper livery, the old look is getting a bit tired and I'd like at least one of my two teams to have something interesting this year. I can't even begin to convey how dissapointed I was to see the MP4-30 in the old West-Mercedes colours. I think Mclaren has missed an opertunity to visualy make a statement about the move back to Honda power.

Interesting to see how far forward the front wing is. I know it won't happen, but I would love to see them stick with this livery for the season.

It looks like it will be a Lamborghini Sesto Elemento. http://www.ipmsdeutschland.de/Ausstellungen/Nuernberg2015/Bilder_AE/Belkits_06.htm

Overall I like it. I actually quite like these cartoony one offs, it's nice to see something a bit different than the usual flood of same old uninspired stuff. I agree with Cameron though, those wheels are no bueno.

It should be pointed out though, the only untouched actual '65 mustang parts in that whole car are the a&b-pillars, and the roof. Every other part is bespoke. So you can't really call this one an old dog. Bloody epic video though!

I'm a bit surprised that Italeri hasn't repoped more of these, Especially the Lancias and Fiats. I just missed out on the Lancia Beta group 5 car on ebay.

I know, but I didn't find out until after they had sold out. And they command the same outrageous prices on eBay that the original Esci kits do. As much as I want one I can't bring my self to pay 40 quid + for one.

Funky.... check!, Iconic... Check, but not in a good way. Anyone who ever lived in the north of England or central and southern Scotland will know this scourge of the roads. And the "sporty" version;

I'm not sure if this really fits this topic, as it is a racing car. But the name is certainly iconic and they are definitely funky especially in today's setting. I would kill for a kit if this!

Everything! The most gutless, miserable, pathetic excuse for an automobile ever created. No styling to speak of and it is a BL car from the worst period to be a BL car. If they kit it like this, maybe I would get one.

Nicely done mate, great looking build! I wonder if any one has tried bashing one of these with the Monogram Mustang for some engine detail? As I think they look near enough the same in the engine bay you could get there with not too much work. NOT meant as a critisim just thinking out loud.

Looking vey good Paul! Are those the kit wheels or aftermarket?

Motor as in engine or as in motorized toy?

Escorts! All the escorts. Or I'd at least settle for a repop of the esci mk.II.

Paul, the front wheels were moved forward 10". It runs on a bespoke tube frame, with c-6 Corvette suspension.

Saw one in person yesterday for the first time. I gotta say, it's the best looking mustang since the 66 fastback IMO.

I was thinking last night that I might try to convert the old Matchbox/revell Escort XR-3 into a series 1. I'm hoping that someone with better familiarity might be able to say, is this possible? Was the Series 1 turbo sold in left hand drive markets? That apears to be my biggest issue on the face of it, as the XR-3 is a left hand drive kit and I'm not sure I have the skill to make a right hand drive dash. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
