Thanks Sonny. Yes here's a few of the MK1, this must be at least 5 years old or more!
The 'glass' came with it. I cut out the bootlid and the bonnet was already apart, and I made up the hinges with paper clips, and wired the spark plugs.
The inspiration.............
The body from this kit. The rest was used to complete a MK1 Escort resin bodied Rally Car.
The clear body against a new Italeri Mk2 kit....
The result..................
Both kits bought for about £5 off the Bay and decorated in two ways. The kit is as a WRC car so built one as is and the other as a Hellaflush/JDM tuner!
Thanks David, yes being retired new kits are very expensive, so I buy a few 'already stared' from ebay each year and resurrect them. I still have about twenty kits left, bought before I retired so still have 'new' stock to build.
Bought as a glue bomb, body OK, rest, chassis, axles,engine, front screen, wheels/tyres all in box. Parts except body hand painted all over so no contact areas, so cleaned off paint, glue parts together, and rebuild.
