What's that colour? Very unusual, is it just made up?

Hello Gary,

Its a colour i saw on a old race ferrari and i thought it worked for the look i am going for. Seanicks colour is great its a very period colour. I am waiting for the stickers to arrive. I am putting some vintage le man type stickers here and there and also alittle advertising for my business with some website graphics here and there.

Have you given any thought to painting the wheels gold?

Wow that looks amazing! Yes i do want them gold after seeing this!!!!!. How was yourholiday? i hope you had chance to relax and not think about mx250's!

Made a new mouth grill. i only have a pic of it before i welded it and fitted it without gaffa tape haha! Il post it in a mo.

Holiday was very good thanks, if a bit too hot!

I never stop thinking about MX250's!!!

I need to adjust the horizontal's and weld the rear up.

dry fitted.

Still needs wet and drying and a night in front of the tv with a tube of autosol ha

Nice grill Billy. What do you call it....Rabbit shredder? :-)
Chris, do you do photoshop lessons? The only way I can do this is to print it then draw in the bits by hand (badly!).

Ha Ha, yes its prettry sharp as i made it out of a offcut of 2mm alloy sheet, so with the edges rounded it is sharp. I will get it welded up and bolted on tom evening.

Oh and a word of warning, Fit your headling to the shell before fitting. Fitting the leather to the inside of the roof around the snug roll cage was a task.

Nick, how many hours do you have? It's the only enjoyable part of my Graphic Design past.

Billy, r u still on the same mobile number? Love the grille by the way

Hi guys, new member Griffj here (jason) TOTALLY love this kit, the Mx250 is totally inspired and a beautiful design, iv been following this thread for a while now and thought i would join the forum to gain a bit more from your posts.
i was planning to build a Forza Italia, but after seeing this iv totally changed my mind, As soon as i can afford it i'll be getting hold of a Mk2 and coming after you for the wide arch kit for the same.
Keep up the excellent work, and i look forward to Reading more about this fantastic kit.

Hi Jason.

Welcome to the Forum

Glad to hear that you have swayed in our direction, was it the roof?

We are moulding the wide arches as an add-on to the kit next week and will post some pictures.

Keep watching and please feel free to comment and ask questions, it's all good.

Regards Chris

Morning Chris,
It wasnt the Mx250's roof, it was the whole look of the car, i really liked the Forza Italia, but allways thought it never looked quite right, but couldnt put my finger on what was needed to change it.

I just like the whole package with the Mx250, it just works, plain & simple. Really hope i can get one soon, been promising myself a big boys toy now for about 10 years, just got to move house first to release some equity, then its all mine.
keep up the excellent work.

For me the roof was a big plus. All this global warming is regulary soaking my interior !

Revised grill (Lowered the slats as when fitted to the car it looks much better.

Fits like a glove as the extended vert pieces trap behind the fiberglass and hold in place well (with the aid of couple of self tappers and some tiger seal ha.

Made from a small off cut sheet of 2mm alloy sheet & cost nothing apart from a cutting disc and some polishing.........frantic polishing!!
