Great example!! I think Tamiya made this as a pre-finished 1/10th bodyset at one point.

I just spotted a fellow in a shirt with the WURTH logo on it today at the hardware store. I still don't know who or what they do, but it is a nice coincidence.

Just googled Wurth they are a massive company who make fasteners, screws, clips and adhesives. Oh and they used to sponsor cool Retro Fords

I know the owner and builder of that capri. Doesn't live to far from me. He also has a v8 capri and sierra cosworth. Did a great job of the conversion. Last time I spoke to him he said he was putting air suspension on so he could drive it on our lovely roads.

Looks cool indeed. Haven't seen a finished 1/10 yet. But seeing this picture I think I am going to buy one and put it on an old TT-01.

This Capri is amazing! Wurth does high quality components for professionals or DIY, one of the best european companies

Steve if you would like to see an original race version of this Capri go to Oulton Park in august 2014 for the GOLD CUP and see it race in the Super Touring Trophy. I watched it race in 2013 going sideways each lap on old hall corner! Listed in the race programme as no. 22 driven by Ric Wood from Stockport 3.4 litre
