Should I build a Hartge touring replica
Discussion
OK im stumped on this one. I have been looking round for pictures of this car as I love Hartge stuff and tourings.
and been thinking should I build it. The problem is I only have one garage so it would have to live on the street as my silver touring has the garage. Would leaving it on the streets just shout STEAL ME, it would have a removable steering wheel. Would the graphics fade, would a cover help or catch on the graphics, would spitefull kids try and peel the graphics off and damage the paint all these questions going round my head I can't think
.
I know what all the graphics look like as I bought a very accurate model
Anyway a few drunken
, impulse buying nights on ebay 
have turned up
Yes thats front and rear Hartge spoilers
and I already have the sideskirts and just spotted the perfect base vehicle.
The idea is to build it up, hit a few shows for a year or two, mabey get a feature in a mag or two. Transfer the Hartge bodykit onto the silver touring (so it does not get damaged) and track the white one.
Or of course I could just thrown the Hartge bodykit on the silver one and be done having one really nice car
. oh and throw my new mats in as well.

It's got to be done Cotty, you will not look back in years to come and be glad that you didn't do it now will you!
It's like going to the 'ring, you don't want to look back and think; 'damnit, I wish I'd gone with those group of lads, it would have been such an awesome time'.
you mean like this, with the old style script? 
I have been looking for three years for a set of those badges for my silver touring. I hope to put a H27 engine in it when one turns up. I don't think the white one would need any extra badges
If you would consider selling them I would be very interested.I have still not found out any further information on the White touring, but I have spoken to a couple of guys in the Netherlands who said they would have a word with the factory to see if they have any more pictures/information.
