It was quite a striking design when it first came out
Almost every one I ever saw was in orange -but I did see a white one once!

There was a lot of fibreglass filler almost holding the shaft tube in place, but I managed to remove that, as well as separating the poorly attached deck from the hull.
I got a little side-tracked after that, and have only retrieved it from the loft in the last few days.
Once I have finished restoring the Graupner Glasgow I bought recently, this will be back on the bench.

A year ago, I picked up a partially built Shadow from Bicester, but sadly haven't made much progress on it yet. I had forgotten how difficult it is to get rid of the smell of polyester resin!
My second on will definitely be brushless as it is a long drive to anywhere that allows i.c. nowadays. I had a go with a club mates electric Shadow and it brought back plenty of memories.

Does anyone remember the Shadow? I’m assuming early 1980s or possibly earlier
