New tool 2002

At last!
Apparently kerbside. The Revell 320i should be good for an engine and bits and pieces.

Just seen this Shay, must have missed the post. Looks really nice, I wonder what the shipping times are like from there.

Me too just noticed this. Is it available here yet Shay?

I'll be picking a few of these up next month while I'm working in Japan

Everybody send Geoff a big shopping list

They'll be available from Geoff's house in Shirley soon!

It's Hasegawa, so should be easy enough to get

And the Italeri Mk2 Escort is now out, but with new decals.

I wonder how they compare with something like Belkits, which are quite expensive.

The Escort is the ancient ESCI kit Gary repopped by Revell too.

It's still the only game in town if you want a Mk2, and it's not that bad really, it's sort of a classic kit I suppose.

It dates from 1980, but is full detail, the suspension needs mods, but I have pics in an 80's magazine that shows how to do it.

Ill take a look cheers Shay.

It's worth a look for the money Gary, the wheels are Minilites, but they're not as nice/accurate as the box art.

Some great aftermarket wheels, any idea what size they would have been, 13"?

Yep, Fireball modelworks has a set specifically cast for the Escort, I'll try to find pics of them Gary.

And now the infamous Turbo is next!

Sorry for posting from another site, but that's the only info I can find, it has the correct later rear lenses.

Thats really nice.

Nicer and faster. Glad I didn't get the tii now.
