Will16 45 Posted May 7, 2011 Hi all, Having a look around on the net and cant seem to find a Mini Clubman shell, only normal Minis. Then I was looking on TC homepage and saw Blacque Jacque's Munchkin. That had a Hot Rod Clubman shell on. Anyoneknow of anywhere to get the Hot Rod Clubman or any other clubman shell?

BiggusDitchus 38 Posted May 7, 2011 Had a look at Blaque Jaques(did you not send him a pm?) showroom entry and he said it was designed for a mardave, so did a google search for mini clubman mardave and came up with this... http://shop.huntersystems.co.uk/mini-clubman-swb-494-p.asp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rabiedmushroom 2 Posted May 22, 2011 Hi, its worth asking Hunter if they have clear / polycarb version of the Clubbie shell, they were available a few years ago. The shell is very basic, no fittings or decals. It won't fit on a M-chassis becuase it is smaller 1/12th scale, you'll need a Mardave Ministock or a V12 kit. Here's mine, sorry I haven't got a spare shell. I made the grille from a photo of my car and then printing it on a sticker, and I did the window surrounds by photocopying and scaling down a standard Tamiya Mini Cooper decal sheet, the bumpers are coloured foam. Hope that helps. http://www.tamiyaclub.com/getuserimage.asp...007122056_2.jpg There was talk on Mini and RC forums a few years ago that someone had taken a 1/10th M01/M03 Tamiya Cooper and modelled a Clubman front end in polycarb. I'm sure I saw a picture of the prototype shell. However it never got made, which is a great shame, because I think it would have sold like hotcakes to us 'real size' Clubman and GT owners!

Will16 45 Posted May 23, 2011 Your clubbie looks great. A polycarb shell would be ideal. I was thinking of getting one and cutting it down to look like a road one not a hot rod racer! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
