Not that it really matters but, to my recollection at least S and D only surfaced and primed the master.

spacecomposites made a mould and body off what s & d had created, please explain what only surfaced and primed means.

I do not need to ask old dave or mick as I was there and working on it, and there were a lot more mods than surfacing and priming.

Considering that myself and Guy widened/lenghtened the body and doors, sculpted the flaired arches and mirrored them leaves me a bit confussed as to what your point is. Also, this work was done at the other end of the factory to where you work (as a painter).

Sorry this thread seems to have been highjacked by a Knobhead, I do not know how you got my no, but I am that scared that I am going for a check wipe.
To go back to the original question, SpaceComposites are a top development and mould making organisation, you only have to look at the scammander to see the quality and I was in no way having a go at them.

Malc, thanks for that. I'd only like to add that the post was highjacked by two, not one knobhead.
