this is a quick mock up of the car but we found a little problem when we measured the wheel base the scooby was only 40mm longer and about 40/45mm wider so thought it would be a easy thing to do but !! not

now i have lots more pics to go up if you all like the project and if not i will not put any more pics up as i no it is not a true vauxhall build but as i said i got fed up with the ford seen as eveyone/thing was being done the same or had allready been done and i think a change sometimes is good
hope you all like and ta for now
