Conv. Trumpeters GT-40 to a J-Car?! July 26 2009 at 7:47 AM		(Login LACobb) HyperScale Forums from IP address 69.254.153.57


What do you think........ As I thumb through Ronnie Spain's great book (plus others) I find minimal differences in dimensions (+/- an inch) Anybody recall what an inch is.....in 1/12th scale? Converting the cabin/forward cowel is more putty work...the rear section simple sheet plastic. Tires & wheels appear to be the very similar...... need to do more homework.......anybody have any ideas - see any problems? Likewise.......how tough will it be to back date the kit from Mk-II to Mk I....White w/Blue nose??? Thanks everyone for any insight. LAC
