Over on another site (now defunct, like so many) during the month of December, I used to run a little light hearted build competition which I named the 'Dick Dastardley' challenge.

The idea was to build a 'Wacky Racer' (Remember the  'Wacky Races' cartoon show?...... http://www.dan-dare.org/Dan FRD/WackyRacesCarsAndDrivers.htm  )

The rules were simple.

1. No new kits are allowed. Only failed kits and parts box parts are allowed.
2. No after market parts are allowed.
3.Let your imagination run wild.
4.Weaponry is desirable but not essential.
5. Have fun.
6. Your Wacky Racer must bear a race number.

 

So I thought I'd show you some of my entries:

The front end of the last one is the skull of a badger (I believe) that I found on my land many years ago, grafted on to the rear end of a car.

The rest are made up from said parts list.
