Hi Mark

Looks Great!....Using the kit chassis is a very good idea.

I started one of these about 6 months ago, and I've got as far as fitting a modified GT 40 chassis and sticking on wide arches (the only way I could fit a Sidewinder layout), with Porsche GT3 Wheels from the Hornby kit. I haven't even thought about an interior.

I'll try and take some pictures tomorrow.

As far as Race Prototypes go, there are not very many about!.... I did find a few photo's of a car racing in one of the American Series and based my car on that one. It is all white with two thin blue stripes, (The American racing colours)., together with Blue numbering.

Most of these cars seemed to have been raced in smaller "Clubman" type of events, and their liveries were standard colours with just white or black numbers stuck on.
Overall White with Black numbering would look pretty good!.

Best of luck.

Regards

Alan

These are the photo's, as promised, of the Rx7, as you can see there is a lot of work remaining to be completed!.

The arches are formed from flat Plasticard roughly shaped to the arch shape and then built up in layers. I then use a filler to form the final shape.

Hi Mark

I had a little spare time today so I finished mine off.

Hope to see some pictures of yours finished soon.
