keefr22 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) Brilliant!!! Excellent job Pete, that looks absolutely stunning!! Glad to see you got the body on the chassis OK! I hope mine turns out as well as yours. Stalled for a little while as I managed to burn through the clear coat on the roof when polishing it out (I'd somehow managed to get a bit of paintbrush hair under the clear coat. No idea how!!) So i had to re-clear the roof & am waiting for it to dry. I really do like your Strat though - think I'll have to build the one I have in that scheme next year now! Keef Edit: I've just looked at your build in the completed gallery. First car model??!! I give up!!!! Edited October 23, 2009 by keefr22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rallychef Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Ding Dong indeed Smudge, Superb effort, and first past the line to boot!, One of my favourite rally cars, I displayed my fully weathered Stratos at automodellismo this year (and promptly dropped it unloading it from the car when I got home). Great build, well done regards Ian D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
