Yes, it is, I want one or two as soon as they are available
Still working on the best solution to print the parts. Right now I print the first part of a 2-part-body. Should be the best solution that you only have to glue 2 parts instead of 3.
Still need 2 weeks to print all parts. But than I am open for orders for sure.

The files from the escort are from Assetto Corsa and they are not reworked for 3d printing.
Interesting... is there a tutorial on how to do that? I can think of a few interesting cars to export from racing sims...

Full kit 917/10 would be awesome, but curbside is the next best thing!

Now I am nearly finished with my new kit.

There is only a testprint for a couple of parts needed and than the model is ready for everyone who is interested in.

More to come.
Regards Christian

Hi Derek, I thought about 180€ plus shipping.
But there are no decals included as usual.

Thats true.There is a lot of resin needed.
By the way.
Is there a market for a 1/24 version of this car?
A lot of slotracer where asking about a body in 1/24.
Is there no kit of it out there?

Christian,

There would probably be a big market for this car in 1/24th scale. It has been done before as a curbside by a company called Formula Canada but they are long gone. It looks like a nice kit but very simple with low parts count. I have not built mine so cannot say how well it goes together but I have heard good things about it. I imagine if you can make the body in one piece and make it thin so that it doesn't weigh much the slot guys will drool over it!!
