Wow, very nice. You nailed Dennis, he always stood around with his hands in his pockets.
I like the pose with of Scheckter with his foot resting on the side of the car as well

Terry, they are 1/18 scale. Markus, they all look great. Even the converted Mears car is nice....
Between Hulme's McLaren shown here and the F5000 in your Photobucket, I am wondering how close I could get to a 1/18 McLaren M18 F5000 car!?!?

Do you mean to convert the Spark McLaren of Hulme into the F5000 M18 ?!? The Spark models are made of resin and I doubt the it would be possible to strip anything or make great modifications on the body without ruin the model. I have no experience with converting resin models. But of course it would be doable to add parts like wings and so on. I took a look at some M18 F5000 - they run in different versions. Looks like a big challenge to me...  You can grab the Spark McLarens dirt cheap on eBay these days. Maybe you should give it a try... Markus |
