Been toying with an idea of doing something with this yoke for a while. Have finally (hopefully!) finished the decals for it and will put it together today. Unfortunately the real thing is a rhd whereas the model is lhd but, depending on how it turns out, may look around for a rhd conversion. It's only a one-off anyways so I'm not too pushed.

Looking nice Ted!

I'm looking forward to seeing this come together, especially seeing as the Ascona 400 is one of my favourite non-6R4 rally cars! Wink

You're probably right, Paul. A few adjustments needed but it's getting there.

Thanks Gary. Will have to reprint one or two decals but happy enough overall. Printed the window names in grey but it didn't work Embarassed

Excellent model. Well played that man.

Now if you could just knock up Jimmy Mcraes BRC winning car from either 81 or 82 this weekend for me, that would be great......

That is very nicely done Ted, looks class. Pity there is not more Ascona's done, they were a bloody nice rally car.

Jeez lads, thanks very much for the comments Embarassed

Quite happy the way it turned out. Couple of adjustments to be made but, overall, I'm delighted with it and really appreciate the comments.

As for the requests to make others, if you're prepared to wait about about two lifetimes then we're in business Laughing
