Suzuki Police Car
by aussie muscle Mon 12 Nov 2012, 2:49 pm
This is Hammond's Entry into the 'Cheap Police Car' Challenge (Season 11, Episode 1)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtTnfFH2Hjc
Kit was Fujimi's Suzuki Escudo (aka Vitara). although the wheels are wrong, and the roof is wrong, it's the correct model/style. If anyone has some lightbars or beacons in blue, let me know. i'm going to need a lot.
I started adding the roof rollbar
also added the sunroof surround and the rear bar thingy (it's actually the frame for the soft top).
To the chassis i added the footsteps from styrene by heat treating it.
I then added wheel arches. they are left overs from the A-TEAM van kit. they needed quite a bit of massaging to fit properly. The siren speaker was made from three different thicknesses of styrene tube. The front bullbar was glued on and the frame built for Hammond's 'stinger'.

You did well to cover the red. I reckon your next project should be the convertable with babboons on the roof!

The interior came out...ok
marriage of chassis to body took a lot of massaging due to the 'bullbar/stinger' framework on the front
