Decided to start building the Revell Ford Fairlane Sunliner kit. This dates back to 1956 so the body is in 5 parts and you really need to build it up from the chassis which isn't really an option for a slot car body.
The Jaguar 420 build is now in a running condition and has been track tested. It runs very nicely on my Policar layout and has also been tested on my club's wooden track where it, surprisingly, went very well, considering the narrow tyres, not the fastest of cars but quite smooth to drive.
I've started a new car build for use on my home track using the Airfix 1/32nd scale Jaguar 420 saloon kit. After some thought I have decided to try using a Pendle's Policar F1 chassis kit with 3D printed front end.
Started to build up one of the Policar engines that arrived yesterday and then found out that the pack only has the engine block and you need the pack with the suspension parts and probably the rear wings so the conversion of the Lotus 49 to Policar is still on hold. I dis manage to get the NSR Ford GT Mk Iv body painted red and ordered some decals for it. In the jat the red looked a bit on the bright side and now on the body it looks a little on the dull side so I just hope when finished with gloss clear coat it looks about right.
