Close enough!!
Maybe even a laser printer will work to get the black overlay?

I've been searching for these 3D models of the body I did two years ago. Now with these much better photos I can really go to town.

I can get some detailed pictures and measurements of it for you (oh MATRON!)

It was also sold as the ATP Lite bodyshell. Demon and ATP sold it for 7pounds 50pence.

I'll get on to my sticker guy about the prism backing and see what he says.

Canabalized another car just to get the front end built

Post man came!!!
We have a roller!

Adding the bumper has made a huge difference!

Looks front-end heavy without the wing now....

Really coming along quickly.

Bumper makes big difference! What I am missing most is the motor which is inbound.

Wing... waiting a bit. Haskins seems to be down on ebay.

Also need a better gear cover, probably get a sabulatech edinger reproduction.

Wing wire is inbound and so are the correct battery connectors all the way from blighty!

Front end heavy! Thats those nasty gold rear springs, every time I put them on a build they just look ugly!

A couple of us were trying to find them 5-6 years ago, contacted Nick who said he had some but never heard back so I guess he didn't find them. As a fall back they plan to reproduce them was was either cut vinyl or black printed in clear vinyl to put over a red prismatic sheet.

Which wing are you looking for? He has a bunch listed.

These might help with the shell replication....

Now these pics are available you can actually see that there is a raised 'intake' behind the nose indent in front of the windscreen. That explains the small slot in the black and white pic you posted earlier in the thread. Looks like it has been cut out on that car.

Thanks a lot Dinglem, say thanks to your mate also for me please.

The correct battery connectors just arrived. These where sold by Demon back in the day but also available at RS. Original on the right.

Decals and wing wire.
