this is how it all started
we carefully measured & copied everything off this 1 in 18 scale model
without c.a.d
its not perfect but bloody close

The pics still don't do it justice though...its so much better in the flesh when you can spot a million amazing little details!
Well done Steve you must be very proud of your efforts?

I'd have enough trouble putting the scale model together, let alone replicating it to full size!
If you do another I want to see if you can do it from a 1:43 scale model!

You look like a proud father in those pics Steve!
What an awesome effort - when are we going to see a Mk2 coupe in CF?
Great way to stop rust being a problem...
Top effort.
Cheers, Dan

I want your job Steve. How satisfying must it be to see it heading out on track.
Now, if only I had some talent.........
