Hi all,
a few years ago I decided to try a model as a "look what i can do" on-spec. effort to win customers.
To my amazement, I found an M8F McLaren almost locally, being restored by Scott Racing in Brandon, Suffolk.
I went over for two days, measuring and photographing the beast and having a good old natter with the great guys at Scott.
Part way through the build, we decided to take up a life afloat and bought an historic canal boat to live on and subsequently rebuild and the M8F went into safe storage.
Well, we've been "back on the bank" for a while and I may well take up finishing this baby.
In the meantime, you can see a step-by-step feature I put on my friend's fotki album. It has text to each of the photos explaining how I did the various bits.
You can find it here:-

I hope you enjoy it.
