Volvo S40 Rallycross model

Well after having the model untouched for a year I have finally started on it.

I have filled the sunroof in with Milliput along with the rear doors.
I am not basing it on any Volvo S40 drivers cars, but just to see what it looks like when done

Stage 2

Well the rear doors have been filled in as the Super National cars and from the first pics I have changed the wheels so they look a bit better.
The rear spoiler is from a modified Peugeot 206WRC model.

Stage 3 will be to rub down the shell again for another coat of primer before starting on the top coats.

Does anyone know where I can find interior pics of Super National Volvo's

I have a Volvo 760 - was thinking of dropping a faster motor in it and doing what you're doing to your's. I'm kinda worried mine may be too low though. There's an awesome track near me - Mosport - and I've heard of fellas racing VWs around there on closed track. Where will you race your's?

I don't think you've quite got this thread okeefe. Mark is an expert model builder and the pics you are looking at are a 1/43 scale replica.

I need to get my finger out on this one if its to be ready to show the Volvo boys at Croft.
But too many models o the go at the mo which include McRae Killarney mk2 and Mcrae Dtages version soon.
Group N Fiesta ST and maybe a Rallycross version plus Kris Meeke's Subaru soon from Rally GB and an Audi TT model to mess about with
