Do the canopy, tail plains and weapons "pods" came from a Revell FW 190 kit, no idea about the rest?

The only thing I can make out would be the canopy, which seems to come from an AH-1G or AH-1J.

Most of my early Dr. Who stuff ended up with Richard Briggs (president of the US Dr. Who fan club) I think his address was something like Richard @Richard Who.com......or something like that? Haven't been in touch for about 5 years or so.

Glenn,

Richard has a website, and here is a link to the page with your models: http://www.richardwho.com/collections/collection125.asp

Prop and spinner, IL-2...the canopy is from a Bell cobra..if I remember. The only post WW2 aircraft used.

This is 'Effervescent', a marriage of the minds between Renault and Aerospatiale.

Built as an electric car for the near future using ideas already in production.
The  model is 1/32sc., and was built using a Honda Fairlady sports car chassis and a Alouette 11 cockpit and canopy,
and a bit of tweaking.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I guess the French companies Renault and AĆ©rospatiale would have said "Effervescente", a feminine version of the same adjective, as "voiture" (car) is feminine in French language. But I am not sure ;) maybe the export version would have been different, like masculine for us.

Tophe, give it the 'female' name....as no 'man' in his right mind would drive something that poofy!

This is to show how easy it would have been to turn a T-6 into an SBD Dauntless, for a movie.
