Nice color choice; Fly Yellow was always the second most popular color; after red..................way after red................! :lol:

The car looks great!

Very nice looking. I haven't found a source for the clear parts, either from MRRC or Revell/Monogram as it is the same body for both. Does this one have the sebring plastic chassis or the clubman metal chassis?

Nice little cars indeed. And those wheels do it for me everytime :)

flat plastic chassis not the adjustable sebring chassis

shame they don't do the clear parts separate - not worth it to me to by a whole new body for the clear parts alone

cheers

Here's the link to MRRC's website.

http://www.mrrc.com/

I have purchased items (cars, chassis, etc.) from them directly in the past and they are very good to do business with.

Also, check out the new Porsche and the new adjustable Monza chassis (looks pretty nice at first glance; way ahead of the Sebring chassis).

Good luck. If you can't find the clear parts that you are looking for, I would email MRRC directly and enquire about them. There's a chance that they will send them to you as a special order; that's the kind of people who run MRRC.

DM, nice colour it looks good, to bad that you can't get the clear parts separate,still a great lookin ride you have on your hands.

Thanks all I have emailed MRRC - will let you know the outcome

:)

If worse comes to worst, then you can get the 275P body parts (including the clear parts) as a kit; in either red or white, from MRRC for about 12 pounds; no too bad for an extra body and all the body parts:

Looks good David.
Only other solution if you can't get the clear parts is to make a mold and do them out of clear petg.
Including the mounting tabs.
I have done some from a mold made of clay, and the results were pretty good.
If you are really wanting clear like the original , a silicone mold and clear resin will also work.
Best of luck

If you are crafty...try a 2 liter soda bottle :)

VERY nice repaint! I love yellow on that car!

I like that Harry, do you use heat
to shape it, ie a hair dryer or somthing like a heat gun?

I had a problem with some clear plastic that had fogged up also on one of my scalextix gt cars, and then it came to me, why not try some of that stuff they use to clean plastic headlights on full size cars.look around the shop and found that i had a kit from mothers. placed some on a soft clean shop rag and rubbed away. and zing zang it worked . so you might give it a try.
