Paint it Blue! Matchbox 9F Superfast Ford Escort RS2000 Custom Restoration

This month’s challenge of the Diecast and Modellers Community on Facebook is to paint any model blue for Alzheimer Awareness. So let’s give this poor painted over Ford Escort RS2000 a makeover!

This DMC challenge has a special donation page for the Alzheimer's Society. Any donation to the cause is fondly appreciated!
