I haven't posted any new cars for a while but have been busy working on new stuff. I've built 3 George Turner kits, some more SCCA cars and a Lotus 47 for the recent Colchester meeting.
First up is a George Turner Austin A35 which is a great little kit and went together in less than a week. The only thing I changed was the drivers head.
Next up is another George Turner, this one took a lot longer to build but the final result is very pleasing.
I built this Lotus 47 for a recent event at Colchester, it is based on a real car that raced at the BOAC 500 in 1967. It is an Ocar body (copy of Protoslot) and I've used one of the excellent new Penelope pitlane 'Clubman' chassis which performed very well.
This one was a simple restoration of a Revell Corvette Stingray. It is based on a real historic racing car, the red stripe was masked and sprayed.
The next three are all SCCA style cars, which are really my thing at the moment. I have a plan but more about that at a later date....
First another George Turner, this time the Morgan +4 and again it went together very quickly, all I've changed is the drivers head and replaced the resin roll ar with a brass one.
MGA is next, I've added lots of detail to this one, it is a resin copy of the Monogram body and sits on a modified MRRC Ferrari 275P chassis.
Finally, a TR3A which uses an old Lindberg body. I've been using this car in Southend Slot Car Clubs (SSRC) 'Unsung Heroes' class. It uses a PCS chassis which control chassis in the class.
Thanks,
Pete
