It's a Thrall prototype, I don't think I've seen a model of it in any scale. An ACF 2-bay is the closest stand-in.

I did already try to scaling the picture in photoshop, you bet...
 
but, this is a job for someone with a color laser printer, printed on a white decal sheet...
...it gets too blurry with an Alps - but I'm interested in a set too if someone will print them. Tom ?

That is truly excellent. The painter even had the foresight to incorporate the reporting mark and weight data into the piece so the RR doesn't HAVE to paint over it...

By Jove, you're right. I missed that! You've got to wonder where that car was parked to permit the creation of such an elaborate ouevre d'art.

Yes, I can do this easily.  I need a scan of the car to get the right dimensions.

Doesn't the car data have to be in a certain spot? Or does this not matter now with that GPS thingy?

I wanna see it built then I wanna see Tivo stick it in a blender  :P
