I love these 'Animals' of the past, and it's great to see that there's an interest there still. The 'Wendy Wool's Special Saloon car championship" was always a favorite Saturday watch for me, and the interviews with Brodie, Marshall et' all were fantastic. I have gathered a few Classics in GTL-GTR2 for just such a class, 'bastardised' a couple with running gear and sound mods and included a few older Group 2/5 cars, I've not painted any or done any bodywork (only capable of numeric massaging) Your own V8 Anglia should fit right in, Thanks Jeanno

I've been trying to get fenders on some of the older cars with varying degrees of success. I was going to post a screenie, but my F12 print function in GTR2 has stopped working...? It was some of the cars causing screenie issue. As you can see, not very elegant, also have to use 4 fender files in each car folder. Also can't get the paint to match. I'm sure thats why people who really know how to do this stuff have the fenders as part of the body. Also noticed isuues only started with the flat topped fenders. Gonna' try to find some better fenders before its garaged. Now about that Challenger III...........? These two stop the screenies...... These two don't play nice with others...........Will try to see what the issues are........... Hopefully I can figure out how to do this nicely and properly........

Some very old threads, but not too bad for researching purposes:
