Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons is a Gerry Anderson series from 1967. Set in 2068, Captain Scarlet presents the hostilities between Earth and a race of Martians known as the Mysterons.
The model is a IMAI plastic kit. scale isn't specified, but i'd guess about 1/30. The kit is extremely basic, only a body and four wheels with a spring-wind motor. Since i'm not making a clock, i discarded that for a straight metal axle. The kit doesn't come with an interior, so that's where i concentrated first. I made the dash and interior from sheet styrene, with seats and greebles from my spares.

Looks good.  I have one I have been putting off for some time now,  When I finish my current projects I just might get to it, and then the S.P.V.
