Somebody should be very proud, a 7 with a back end like that would look good.
Be Lucky Mike.

Just like a Tiger GTA isn't a direct copy of a Fury?

Considering this site is based around the most copied car ever built, I dont think any of us can talk about using unoriginal ideas!

True, but one kit maker just whacking the complete rear end plastics from another kit makers model is pretty poor standards as far as I'm
concerned!

Im with Scootz on this.
Yeah we all have "7's" (or severnesque if you like), and we call them "7's" and acknowledge the original roots of
the design.
We don't go round calling them "8's"!

To be fair the angle of the rear panel is distintly different, so its not like he acctually got a striker tub and used that withouty making some
changes!

Edit: the angle may be different but it's still the same: rear tub design, stacked lights, slope on the sides of the cockpit, curved rear
archers that were unique to the striker, etc etc etc. If you cut that photo in half so just the rear of the car was showing and posted it
here, on a knowledgable forum, asking the question "what car is this?", pretty much everyone would say Striker.
