Thanks! Getting praise from all the other great truck builders out
there means a lot to me. By my calculations, the Cherokee is about
1:15-1:16 scale. My Diablo is about 1:14-1:15, my 12 wides are about
1:20, and the 8 wides are about 1:25-1:30.

1:13 is pretty big! IMO, cars tend to have a lot of interesting shapes
and surfaces that can be quite a challenge. Give it a shot! Conveying
the round edges of the Corsa could be quite difficult, but it has some
distinctive features (like the rear wheels) that would make it easy to
recognize.

| (...) *whips out the trusty tape measure* It's actually just under 1:15 (1:14.88) according to my length measurements, though it's a little too wide and a little tall for its length (but we won't worry about that now, will we?) Adrian (23 years ago, 4-Mar-02, to lugnet.build)
