Build yourself a Westfield (another build thread) but with a difference

[Mark (smokey mow)]

Next up is the body tub 3 slots are cut in this to take the tabs on rear arches. 2 slots in the bottom and one at the top in the tonneau cover.

A little bit of extra reinforcing is given by gluing and then also taping on the inside

And then the dashboard folded and glued to the tabs on either side.

Sorry if I'm being thick but why Stoneliegh organisers?

 

Or do you mean the organisers for the club stand at Stoneleigh.

 

 

Yes I mean Chaz or Mark or whoever is running WSCC at Stoneleigh

Next job is the interior, this is what the basic folded shape looks like.

Then all glued together

And finally fitted into the tub

Is this blue peter ?

 

did you get the badge

[Norman Verona]

Far more than a badge. He's has everyone's admiration.

I think it needs an elastic band motor as a finishing touch

I think it needs an elastic band motor as a finishing touch

I migiht have to do an XTR2 and XI next once this one's finished

[XTR2Turbo]

XTR2 should be easier - it's just a wedge shape

I'm a bit slow with tonights update since I've just spent the last hour updating the drawings to include clamshell wings I'll get some pics posted up once I've built another model

Back to the build and the next stage is to assemble the front axle assembly, here the headlamp backs are glued in place

And then the axle folded up

Next comes the exhaust

And then the seats

[Tillett Car Seats]

I'm liking the seats

[Nic Chase (NICO) - Shropshire & Mid-Wales AO]

Mark, you are one smart cookie!

With too much spare time!!

[Mooch]

I'm just loving this thread.  I want one!      

[Norman Verona]

You should be able to buy one at Stoneleigh.

 

By the way does anyone know the dates for this years show?
