While I was a bit bored with my Escort MkII I've start to thinking of new project. Focus was my first ever so when I looked at it I get an idea to rebuild it. Kit was Revells Focus driven by McRea/Sainz. It's still Revell but now it's Delecours' car. As ussual had some problems with this kit. Ok lets see what was done so far:
First step was to reshape front bumper.

Body with bumper and rear wing attached.

After cutting off plastic from vents in the bonnet body was ready for painting.
I will be using Reji decals.

Shocks with new springs.

Nice start to your new project.
Interior looks very nice. And I like the small details you added.
The paint on the body looks a bit rough in the pictures. I hope you're going to sand it smooth before you're going to apply the decals. Otherwise you might get some problems with silvering (air trapped under the decals). I learned it the hard way, sadly.

Thanks for comment DerXL. Pic of the body was made after painting so sanding&polishing was on the way.

Front bumper is missing cause Reji decals were odd and I couldn't apply them so I had to paint it. Without any surprises should be ready in two weeks.

Thats true Spike. Wheels are from Tamiya kit and if I tried to hide them I would had to rebuild arches or suspension. To be honest I didn't want to do that. Plan was to build something quick with just few details. Rear wheels are looking bit odd cause they're not attached yet.
