McLaren Mk6 GT

[Dave B]

Doesn't look much at the moment but it comes with a full chassis pan, engine detail etc just like the 2E so it's going to be a fun build.

One of my all time favorite cars, surely more accurate than the AMT Coyote model I've been converting.

Watching with much interest.

Yep, looking forward to this .

Dave...here is one of those " why didn't they ever make a kit of"  cars.  Saw one these in person (they only made two)  and fell instantly in love. Will be following this one with great interest.  You are painting it Mclaren Orange, aren't you????

The ultimate race car in disguise. You have my full attention Dave

[Mark W]

Nice, a very interesting subject. Will follow with interest.

Tks guys, just don't hold your breath this is all I have so far and so much to do on the 2E.

Rich, a bit of a quandary there, Bruce's car was red!!!

I've plenty of time to think about it 😂

Again it will be interesting to follow you with this one, Dave ! I remember seeing some pictures of the original several decades ago in a German car magazine (must have been late 70's/early 80's...) - it was red and had a blue California license plate, IIRC.

Dave...just poking a little fun at you. Although the one I saw at Watkins glen many years ago was orange.  Mr Color Character Yellow is a very good match by the way. Of course its your project  and the choice is ultimately up to you. It will be a great project whatever you do.

I've picked up the chassis pan.  Great detail in engine bay and front suspension.  Seat and dashboard as well as wheels/tyres to come as Phil had a print failure😓

Hoping to collect the remaining pieces next Tuesday.

PS

Rich, it looks like it's going to be Papaya Orange as it appears to be based on chassis 50-17 and not Bruce's road car.

Super cool subject. Watching with interest.

The print quality on the chassis is impressive. You have a solid foundation to build on.
