Hi Paul, it was in X20 SRT that he came 3rd on the 2001 RAC Rally & in doing so became the WRC World Champion for 2001 :smiling3: :smiling3:.

Looking good mate will be nice to see how much better a job you do than I did of mine.


Did you use primer?

Thanks mate, yes I used Halfords white primer but forgot to get pics of it in primer..


Ive left the interior floor pan in primer as most of the Works cars just had the floor painted white ..

I started mine before Lucy was born. I finished just before she turned 6.


Challenge accepted? Haha!


It was down to not using primer, not realising that you had to thin model paints etc... I'm now learning using much more expensive mistakes lol

Im worried about doing the heads on them, as hands not that steady anymore lol...
I wouldn't worry. Unless it really will annoy you, we won't judge you on that. If I were you I'd just do whatever was the most fun and not worry if it's not absolute perfection. I'll bet you do a fine job.
