    C.A.E. Corse I is the one you're missing. I think the green Corse 'S' is from the Greenwood era?

    I think it's just Hawk dash panels and front louvres Neil?
    Chris S. will let us know for sure. I did think that it had a Hawk front end on it at one time, but I'm sure Chris said it was an original Corse panel.

    I could be wrong but I thought it was all hawk body work. The chassis for sure is litton, but we need chris to confirm what bits were hawk...

    If it's my old car you're talking about, then Chris has it for the bodywork, Hawk louvres and dash, the rest was CAE FG parts. AFAIK, a Litton era chassis but with early CAE wishbones. A real Heinz 57.

    Ok so I was wrong as usual

    It just needs something from listerbell to complete the cocktail!

    Lawrence Castle's (Vojx) was the only completed Corse I know of with a full set of Hawk bodywork fitted. The chassis kit was from the late Litton days prior to Hugh Carson resurrecting the project.
    The Corse kit that was for sale on Gumtree recently also looked to have a full set of Hawk bodywork fitted but was still a bare kit so nowhere near finished. The origins of this one remain unknown.

    Big thanks to everybody for all the advice on Saturday and for letting me park my very large backside in so many seats, the years have obviously caught up with me, getting in and out was not a pretty sight.

    Griff I have sent a PM with my address.

    I dont think Vojx is on this forum & when he is finished with his latest reincarnation of Sid there wont be much of the hawk panels left...
