I have never seen that kit.
If the roof were slightly higher and the red blisters were removed from the rear fenders , it would work.

Thanks for posting this one, Jacque. I have never seen it before. These Provence
Moulage kits are not common in my purchasing venue, even though I have a built, I think, a few over the years. This Ford looks interesting!

I often buy race kits of street cars to build as street versions.
I don't care for race versions but almost all my various Porsche and Corvette Kits are race kits that I'll make into street cars.
This one you built is great. Keep it street!

What a great idea. Making street cars from the old racing kits.
Good idea when the decals go bad because the kit is so old. Bad idea when you build Chaparrals and Lolas and cars that were never street-able. I think my love of racing cars has some history interest attached to it. I went to a lot of CanAms and IMSA events. You just had to be there. Or not.

I love the old LeMans prototype racing, IMSA, & CanAm but your right, they don't work as streetable.
