No connections to the seller who states it's not a Hawk or LB kit. Being MR2 based that's clear.

Well that's interesting. Not sure it'll appeal to anyone on here, but you've got to appreciate the effort that's gone in to it.....each to their own, and that
I sold some bodywork to a fellow from Malton, Yorkshire once for an MR2 based project. When I saw the description thought this might be it, but the panels were yellow pigmented so must be another one somewhere!
For sure it is not a Hawk or a LB neither but that could be funny to rebuild and modify as a new stratos looking cheap car !!...without a Ferrari engine of course:p
I've seen the one that's for sale now, before. Ages ago. It's looks the same now as it did then, apart from the 'New F430 Stratos' lamp 'detailing'.
As seen on this forum back in 2014-see HEREQuote:

You have a better memory than the rest of us Craig. Or is that mine is getting worse....Quote:

I think the original builder was called Ian, he bought some random panels from us way back in maybe 2011/2012.
I think for the large part the panels were just stuff we had lying around & couldn't sell as gel finish to LB customers.
The nose section for sure was the one we used at the early shows and it had the bonnet scoop which caused some chatter back in the day.
Talking of Stratos kits. Here's one for Norms Christmas list.
If he's been good enough......
" I reckon it needs a month of eves and weekends to finish."

Excellent colour scheme there... :) slightly angular shape looks like somebody tried to make a Stratos but only had a wood plane and a ruler :) :)Quote:

I can't quite decide which one is more accurate.
Why is one headlight in different position on the box artwork?
Don't get too worked up about it.
I've only been playing with an AI image generator!
Only you would question that Chris, whoever drafted it is not as good as you.Quote:

I made a full set of custom stickers for a Lego one that Vince built, a few years ago.
Brilliant!
It's got Alitalia stripes now:
MR2 rebody
Tree and I were at Hebden Bridge show today with the Corse.
A guy wandered up who (his quote) "buys part completed restorations with his mate and finishes them up to roadworthy condition for selling to allow the owner to do the final touches"
Turns out they bought the MR2 Stratos and they got the engine running.
They put covers on the headlamp apertures and put a light pod on.
They then sold it and "did all right".
Keep your eyes open for it. They sold it in Alitalia livery
