Does anyone have a lot of spares for airfix cars?
I bought a batch of bodies from Barry Boor a while back with the intention of getting them running with old mrrc chassis I have, but they are just too wide. 

 Tony have you considered using a Policar mount. Pendles market a 3D printed front section designed for use with their resin F1 kits. I think it is also available direct from Amato who designed and print it for Pendle.
 
Not finished yet but the Airfix Porsche and Barry Boor Lotus 18 body below use the 3D front section and Policar pod. The chassis was a bit of a tight fit around the back of the Lotus but it fits with a bit of fiddling.

   

   

I don't have much in the way of F1. I have a 1/24 Russkit Honda which I posted in SSRC club thread, a couple of 50's GP cars with Pitlane chassis built to Early birds rules, 3 x different livery standard Policar Lotus 72 and a March 701 and those shown below which are all Policar conversions using Andi Rowland's 3D printed chassis.

Unfinished SRC Ferrari and Mclaren M23. Bodies and some detail parts were all bought from the SRC website when they were clearing out spare parts.
I did test the Mclaren but I used Pendle Scalex replacement front wheels which made the guide run too high so it kept deslotting. Policar fronts will solve the problem but I preferred the chunkier look of the Pendle wheels.

   

Fly Williams FW07 and Lotus 78

   

   

and lastly a slightly battle worn Fly March 761 converted for Policar.
