Tour de Course 1985, It only ever won one race, But what a cool looking car.
I had so much fun building this.. with a few minor liberties. It drives great and the lights look so cool at sunset while hitting a dirt lot.
The body shell came from Land models in the UK.
The fog lights where yellow dipped to reflect in the chrome when off.
The exhaust is custom brass as that is where the real one was positioned.
Wheels and tires are vintage 31mm rear and 26mm fronts.
Hope you enjoy.
Thank you.

Work is picking up at the moment, but I will do so when it gives me the time.
