Title: A S1 racer on track
Post by: haico on Sunday,August 11, 2024, 08:11:44 AM

Took the little girl to a track, she behaved well.
A few more tweaks and she is ready after a very very long rebuild

Haico,
Is that the mermaid car?  I seem to recall it ended up somewhere in Europe.

Congrats and well done. She's a fine looking Europa. We'd love to see a couple more photos. Cheers.

Is the Europa so petite or are all modern cars so extremely lardy?

Hello Haico,
that's a fantastic looking S1, I like it a lot. Which shade of blue did you use to paint the car? Looks like Wedgewood Blue to me. Would you mind sharing the chassis VIN? I'm maintaining a small registry with all surviving S1s and would love to add your car.
