What is that???

Out on a bike ride I came across this and my immediate thought was, what is that?

Not a car shape that you see every day and things like the underbody sealant spray job on the body pointed to the fact that this was very much a custom job. But what car was it based on? A quick look round the back revealed that it had started life as a Nissan Micra!

It looks to be well engineered with some substantial struts in place to add strength following the removal of the rear upper body. Not sure if it really needs the rear spoiler and the wide wheels but who knows what may have been squeezed engine wise under the bonnet to replace the original 1lt. block! 

Although not something I would wish to own or indeed drive, I never the less admire the work that has gone into making something that is a one off and certainly catches the eye as well as no doubt raising that question as to what is that in the minds of many who see it!.

Back at WMD HQ I have returned to the build of the Panzer Ferry kit which when finished may also raise that question as to, what is that, with those that see it. 

The deck of the pontoon has now been sprayed in Tamiya Deck Tan which is a good shade to use.

Next up is to give it a coat of matt varnish to allow for the next stage of painting - more of that in a later post!
