Dave B Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) Well, I have finally finished my Shadow. Been fun to build and I would like to thank my mate Roger for the kit and his friend Walt for giving it to him. Apart from the mirrors, from my parts box as the Raydot style were incorrect, and opening all the major vents it has been built box stock. Great decals from Michael at Indycal and finished in auto acrylic with a clear coat. Now it's back to the fliptop Cobra body!! Rich, you'll enjoy building yours, get on with it!! Tks for looking Dave B Edited June 10, 2020 by Bantoft typo
Dave B Posted June 10, 2020 Author Posted June 10, 2020 PS the drivers side mirror has since fixed!! Dave B
TonyK Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 That's a unique car you built and a very nice job on it. The real picture really helps to show the accurate work you did. Thanks for sharing it.
Rich Chernosky Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 Dave.....that certainly turned out sweet. You are right...I will have to start on mine....now that I know how do-able it is. Thanks for posting the WIP and all the inspirational help.
Silver Foxx Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 A lot of really nice work in this , looks great .
raylinds Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 Great build. I am a huge fan of Can Am and the Shadow was one of the more unique and coolest ever made.
Gramps46 Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 Very well done indeed. It is hard to imagine the actual size without a reference point.

STYRENE-SURFER Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 Shadow... My all time favorite team. F1, Can-Am, whatever they did was always over (or under) the top. here is a extremely short video, what a machine.
iBorg Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 That still is one of the scariest race cars built of all time.
