To paint it the true colours.....

its beautiful........

Did the sub frames come out OK

It is an MGF taken to the land of the giants

Nice job. Did you do one of these?

there's a hole in the back box...

I think your anti-theft procedures are becoming very time consuming...

What is the original model - I'd love to get a right hand drive model of the MGF.

Looks like the 1:18 scale Corgi one to me, like mine. Available in either soft top down or hard top on. Seen them in Green, Red and White, always on eBay

It's a Corgi 1:18 green MGF mk1. It's a RHD , can't change that.... Got it for a really fair price from a dutch fleabay, in the box like brand new

Need to paint the lighter colour as mine is dualtone, but I will first let the paint dry for a day or 2. So the result I'll post end of the week.

Front sub is glued but if you turn the wheels you can reach the screws. Back sub are a bit tricky on the exhaust. Broke the rear mirror on dissasembly, I'll glue it when finished.

Finished it ! I'm confident. Have yet to mount the mirrors and antenna.
Tip leave the back side of the underpart/interior unscrewed for about 3 mm. This gives the needed ankle to fit in the rear subframe and exhaust. The wheels still 'offcentre' will leave just enough space to thighten the underlying screws. Then put the engine and wheels in the right position and thighten the subframe.

You should add your original number plates.
