My new pet Project...

[McCLaw]

Hi all!

I’m new to this forum (and building kit cars).
I’m starting my first project tomorrow.

Here are some pic's of the Mangusta (not the De Tomasu)
that I am going to repair.

The car was designed by a South African called Eric Booth.

This is an original, Not a replica of another car( although it looks a lot like a Ferrari )

it has a tubular frame and a back mounted golf engine.

donor parts are from a Mazda 323 and any golf mk1 to mk3

Any advice would be appreciated

Looks interesting. Looks like you've got your work cut out too. Are there any pictures of finished cars around on the net?

[McCLaw]

No, I couldnt find any but the current owner said that he has got Pics of a finished one...

I will post them as soon as I have them

I think it would probably take me about 6 months (and a lot of sweat) to complete.
