      :p Wow that is nice Z. I always like to find rare shells. My fav find still is the 206:) Very nice work on the paint. I like the idea of using a off-white for the lights, hope you don’t mind if I borrow it for a future paint job?

      thanx all. toyota echo eh? nice….

      wouldn’t know what brand it was, it came in a clear plastic bag at an asian model shop with out any info. had to mod the slots slightly to fit the chassis.

      sorry camshaft, i sprayed it as soon as i got it, the quality of the martini logo was top notch.
      it could of been official…..

      Thats different, it does look like an Echo, but if it came with Martini decals….I’m starting to think it might be some kind of Peugot (sp?).
      What do you guys think, I know there are a few Pug fans out there.

      just took a look at the toyota website and the front end looks pretty different. might just be the 2004 is different to the 2003….

      Not a Peugeot. The grill isn’t right.

      My pathetic guess is a Satria GTi that’s been backed into a wall.
