Is your car on your layout?
Weather been poor, stuck in the house with one currently useless arm so when the parcel arrived from Hattons with a Ford Escort with the correct base colour it was time to jump in the Tardis. Back to Monifieth in 1983 and my mode of Transport was my cherished first car. My Ford Escort 1300 XL reg BUP 356L. I wanted to have this somewhere on my layout to complete the memories. I had my bronze coloured car two toned by one of my customers (worked in a Bank) by adding Reliant (no laughs please it was the exact shade required!) Sand Gold.
I trully wish I still had this fantastic car. No computers, ECUs, mysterious under bonnet components. Spanner, screwdriver WD40 and a spare plug was all you needed........
Anyway I think it looks rather good!
Any of you other bods created your own car?? Post any pics here...
