THE SAGA BEGINS....LIGHTNING MCQUEEN

Hi all ,
well at the moment i have a lot of spare time due to not being able to go to work due to my right hand being in a cast so that being said i have been able to do some modelling ,starting to get the hang of building with one and quarter hands(i take my hat off to amputees).Anyways due to my growing number of "cars" cars i have built so far, it was only a matter time before lightning mcqueen was on the list.I have been putting it off due to the amount of work he will require due to being a mash up of a few different types and then some.So today after some more research and talking my self in to it i have started.....let the chopping begin!.At this stage two nascar bodys have been used 1st one:kyle pettys hotweels pontiac grand prix and jeff burtons exide ford taurus(what a mix!)so the roof and rear quarters will be used from the grand prix and have been put on the taurus after having its roof and some of the rear of the body removed.at this stage it still looks really rough ,but its a start. Stay tuned.

Sweet.......The kids and I got to see the 1:1 version at Sandown!

At least you wont need to make an interior.
