F4 Progress
The Vindicator F4 has now been
treated to an engine upgrade. It's a car in the style of an F4 Phantom jet
fighter. See the models page for a photo.
After having its engine upgrade, air conditioning added and canopy operation
sorted (compressed air), it was stripped back down to a bare chassis.
The chassis coating has now been done and the mechanical side rebuilt. The bodywork has now been refitted, and has been painted and it’s last job (trimming) is due to be sorted in the near future.
It will be available for viewing, by appointment, whilst the rebuilding and finishing process continues. Please let know if you would like a specific invite to the F4 Focus Open Day planned for the F4 launch once the rebuild and finishing is complete.
NB - John only has calls/texts access on his phone,
so any email contact may not be read until after the event
(sat in front of the office computer, hopefully with a cup of tea!)
