At todays 009 open day in Mansfield A1 models are now making 3 types of 3d printed body kits I picked up the 1930's Fowler which uses the Farish new 08 chassis
here are photos as the kit comes I have just given the body a coat of primmer & once dry I will post a new photo so the detail can be seen

as can be seen in the 3rd photo there is a small amount of stepping on the roof but a quick file will get rid of this

Hi Peter.

It is an A1 Models bodykit, designed to fit on the o/s framed Farish class 08.

Give John a ring or drop him an email for details on how to order or what shows he is attending. He will be at ExpoNG in October, but that's the only one I know for sure.

I have done one on the Farish class 14 chassis, very simple but effective conversion.
