Here is the 2002 Lowndes FG Tribute made by a person well known in the Australian diecast industry as a custom modeller.

The donor car was the Craig Lowndes Sydney 500 car.

As you can see, this was not just a decal jobbie.

The gentleman who made this car sought a set of Team Dyanmics Control rims. When making the car, we thought, how would this car of looked like if it ran the same livery in 2010. So BIANTE decals were upgraded etc.

Note - Biante released this model in the AU guise.

Hey Mr Ed
I'm trying to find someone who will do a custome Lowndes Car for me. The car i'm trying to get made is the 2006 Phillip Island car when he and Rick Kelly came together. I see you have walked away from transforming diecast but if you can point me in the direction of someone who might be able to help it would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
