Vacuformed using lexan?  There sure wouldn't be much detail...  It would
look like a Scirocco, but I would want one with every little detail we
could put into it.  The only way to do that I know of is a plastic body,
like a Tamiya Mountaineer, Clodbuster, etc.  (we are talking 1/10th
scale, right?)
I do understand the cost restraints though, so if we could do a lexan
one that's better than none!!
