Focus WRC

Post by HirotoR34 »

I'm not sure if I posted this before (I've been out of the game for a while) but here is my latest creation. I started out with a 1/24th scale Tamiya Focus WRC model kit and immediately chopped the body in half. I then removed about a 1/4 inch strip and bonded the two halves back together. All the side windows had to be cut as well. I then cannibalized a set of XM wheels for the center hubs and adapted them to the Tamiya rims. I decided to paint it red to match my SVT focus. Lastly I made custom body mounts and drilled holes for the headlights and taillights. It came out pretty good and the body stays on no matter how hard I push the car.

Yeah. You posted it before... but, you used a camera phone pic of it. This pic definately shows it a LOT better than that did...

I'm still lovin' it, and I still think that the matched controller is dope.

And I STILL agree with Finks... Please get us a pic of it with your 1:1 SVT Focus... That would be sooooo killer.

Well, it's official... The fuckus is dead. It got totaled during a suprise canine sniper attack. I was so pissed, I put it out of its misery with my 1lb framing hammer. :duh: :sad:
