Its a great big version of...

...the white escort Scalexric car from my childhood.
If I built one of these I would also need 2 minis with chequered flag roof and a red STP March with a tea try nose.

It's still only a concept at the moment though isn't it? I'd have one tomorrow. My first car was a Mk1 (with nearly as much fibreglass in it as this one - Well Isopon anyway!) and my formative years were all Escort based.

Cracking idea though I would love one, never had a MK1 myself but had a few Mk11's even a proper "racing version" A 1977 modena green 1300 estate......mental street racer till I planted it in the side of an Austin Princess in Corby outside the steelworks when I shot a red light in "go faster got to get to work or else mode". The other fella did the same so we both got the blame.......hahahahahahaaha

Beautiful looking car, just a shame they opted for the v6, short front wishbones, live axle, ERW tube throughout......

I also have a sneaking suspicion the quality of the grp will be no better than what I have found on the kit car market (a lot of which is frankly dreadful!)

Nice concept but realistically Id only want to borrow the moulds
