Where did the Navigator body come from, as I thought the moulds were not useable?

Actually, following on from my previous post, you don't know how many Navigator kits were made do you?

Either way, looking forward to seeing the finished Scimitar version.

Hi Paul, when I spoke to RIBBLE's laminator he told me he built 22 body's, 2 Austin Powers things, 8 Navigators and 12 Pilot's, if I remember right
This shell was one of the original SAMMIO Cordite body's before they where "re-worked".
Here a few photos of "work-in-progress"











The whole thing looks simple but it's been a nightmare

I still have a problem with the driving position, some how I have to extend the dash to meet the steering wheel.





I also think I will have to lower the floor-pans to avoid the "noody" effect.

I would have like to do a blog on this but the chap who's buying it said no, so sorry
