Any guesses...?

It's something that's been ticking in the b/g for a long time.
Almost ready to try.

Apologies for dodgy pics - done in a hurry, and these first pieces are just test parts.

Looks interesting Roy.

So is this based on a kit or is it something you have scratch built?

I'm looking at making a roadster conversion for the Revell E Type.

I've got three of the big 1/8 kits in my stash that I want to 'roadsterize'.
The tail parts and roof are scratch made and then resin cast and vac formed.
No kit, or anything bought in... All scratch.

Roy.

That sounds like a very interesting project. Shall be interested seeing this take shape.

I'm just starting a test fit of the first parts.
By no means sorted completely yet - some tweaking and adjusting needed to get the parts to match the Revell pieces neatly.
Getting there though.

Roy.
