Ford Falcon XD 'Tru Blu'

I've wanted this file to print for months, sometimes you need to watch old YouTube race coverage to make your mind.

Correctly scaling it wasn't a quick job but I'm confident it's close.

This will see action in our Saloon class (and Rally if I can find proof).

Colour is a mix of supermarine blue and turquoise.

Chassis design is underway...

Got one of them, a print that is, although possibly not as smooth as yours.
I thought I might do it in resin once smoothed out some and do a run of body kits.

Does anyone know of a supplier for a set of 'Tru Blu' decals

Aussie car = Aussie decal producer

A bit of googling finds https://www.pattosplace.com has some that may do the job

Looks sweet, although i must admit to hoping to see the Mad Max yellow MFP to pair up with the original Scalex black one sitting in the cupboard awaiting a partner Rofl

Although seeing how much people are asking on ebay, maybe I best keep it there .... but people can't really be paying over £100 for them surely ? Talking

Did you download an STL of the body? If so, where can I find it?
