So whilst passing time waiting for a flight home I came across a great replica build thread.
link
Not only is there some great build details, but it starts with a great background of the car being recreated. Pus it has loads of interesting bits about how the car developed from a factory spec racer (well interesting if you’re fast becoming a capri nerd like me!). So if you too want to pass some time
Obviously a thread is nothing without pictures - check out the dish on this
And check out the box arches and aero on on the competitors! The car above became the blue/yellow/red one at the front of shot, along with chevy V8 and a massive bonnet bulge - said it developdeveloped
And in one incarnation it got a Jag V12 on quad downdraft webers - now that always equals winner status
Only thing wrong with the thread is it rather puts my Mk1build to shame - wish I'd see this before I started!
