Looking forward to the outcome. I used the same kit to do the Jerry Titus #8 car on a Scaley Chev Impala chassis.

Thanks for looking.
That looks great Rich!
The interior is all mocked up and ready for paint. I made the rear bulkhead from some plastic stock. The roll bar is made by soldering some solid core wire together, I have to file down the solder a bit still.

Strikes me why Scalextric haven't added the #8 Titus car to their T/A series. After all they did a one off of the #77 Challenger.

I'd have a whole collection of Titus cars if I could. As it is, I have done the Firebird/Camaro in 1/24th & 1/32nd. Then there's the yellow/black Mustang... I'm gonna go look up what else he drove.
