Still, would look good on the site there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I saw a modified 170 on one of the Wexford clubs layouts at a few of the shows and it looks a lot closer to my eyes. The builder made a nice job of it!

0 Weshty Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 The hardest bit is the roofs and nose. That is a quality conversion, all those compound curves. You've really caught the essence of the front and the colour scheme looks very good as well. Well done sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 craven1508 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Dont think id have the skill to attempt that conversion, lts very well done , No offence taken, will post some evening departures for the fun later he!! he!!

I'll consider adding it to the work stack, but I have several other pets projects to get out of the way first. Great to see the upgraded drawings on the site. These will help significantly.
