Yokomo time warp.
 

This was the car I always wanted, but nearly 18 years ago it was always going to be a daydream as my pocket money wouldnt stretch that far !

All hail the 1989 Yokomo YZ-10 870C.:)

Flip forward forward in time and a plan was hatched. Build myself a modern day replica.

The MR-4BXF was despatched from Japan and was a joy to build, Telboy was briefed to come up with a modern version of the shell and I supplied him the picture, I think youl agree he did a stunning job.:D Im well chuffed with it.

Wow! Even I'm stunned!:)

You never know how the shell is going to look actually on the car. and most of the time you never get to see it mounted.
