    Ford Focus, 1/24, Airfix

    spent some time today in the Overhead Long Term Stash Storage Facility (loft to you lol) and came across something i had forgot about

    a very long time ago i was given this.......Airfix/Heller 1/24 Ford Focus WRC.......i got it with no instructions or decals.......mind you no decals is a bit of a blessing since all the Airfix/Heller rally cars had garbage decals!,..........its such a cheap and nasty kit i was never going to buy some after market decals so always planned on saving it until i had a selection of spare decals that i could use to create some kind of club level rally car.....well, nows the time :smiling:

        I think your best tool for this one would be a lighter Paul !!

            If it's any help I think the four large, round parts go one on each corner

              im not wasting time or resources on this cos it really is a cheap and nasty kit

              improvised some harnesses with some 3mm ribbon

              body shell needs the window rubbers painting black then some varnish before decals
