I have always been a fan of the 'big banger' sports cars and decided to have a go at scratch building some Aussie icon cars. I previously built the Matich SR3R and have just finished the Elfin Traco Olds, as raced by Neil Allen prior to installation of a Chev V8. It is based on a slush cast of an Elfin 400 mould I have.

It's a curbside only and all parts are resin or scratchbuilt.

Just a pic of the Matich & Elfin together. Time now to start Bob Jane's Elfin 400 Repco.

Thanks for looking

Great work. I grew up a Can-AM fan and got to see the Mclaren M8B's of the Bruce and Denny show at Watkins Glen. I have never seen those cars.

Tks guys, comments appreciated.

The Frank Matich ran the SR3R in about 5 Can Am races, the Elfin you wouldn't have seen over there

Good work Dave. What's next ME5? I have the plans, it would make a good built in Styrene!

Converting a Heller P4 to the Scuderia Veloce 350 spyder!!

I will get the plans off you however and thanks for the Elfin decals!!!
