Sportscars, partly from yesterday

Here.
I am a fan of classic cars.
There are some modern cars for the racetrack, but what really got me interested were a Ford GT 40, a 1972 Chevy Camaro and a Jensen Interceptor.
I haven´t seen a model of the Jensen anywhere before and I think it is an outstanding sportscar of unique, classic lines.
The Ford GT 40 can be built with the head lights faired over or open.- Probably for the 24 hours of Le Mans where, from 1966 on, this car won 4 times in a row, thus breaking european supremacy and especially Ferrari´s.
The models are designed with Pepakura which means you always know which part goes where, but lots of narrow strips and glue tabs.
Scale ist 1:18, so it is an easy thing to scale the kit down to the standard scale of 1:24.
Proportions are superbly well met, a thing not always seen with Pepakura.
Besides the Pepakura files, each download also contains the parts as png graphics files which means you could recolour them, e.g. by using GIMP. Fairness demands to ask the designer before doing this.
For me, these models are a clear "must build".

Cheers, Martin
