I think if you approach them they may say yes because it's another aspect that they could use for students in the classroom setting to teach they could probably have it as a download on their website

I would certainly be interested in a model,.. I think they would be too, to spread the interest of this form of science and technology

Would be great to see models of these. I have a personal affinity with these too as I went to Coventry University, who worked on the wheel design of the SSC, and Thrust SSC is at the Coventry Road Transport Museum. Impressive vehicle and a good museum too.

Funnily enough too, I lived in Swansea in South Wales and Swansea University is working on Bloodhound

I recall a thread about land speed record paper models.
Wonder if there are any out there (Spirit of America, Blue Flame etc)?

i finally found the Thrust SST model I mentioned in a previous post

I have tried to find the site mentioned on the model, but no luck on that front.

Ok, on the site that Doug below found, I have been able to find the model

Thrust SSC - Computer Freebies

The only thing I have found is a site with that address that leads to a web server site.
Thrust SSC

From the above site:

ThrustSSC
thrustssc.digital.co.uk is a cluster of Alpha servers running UNIX, and is physically located in Boston, Massachusetts. This cluster serves all the main site pages, including the Home Page and all the background information.

If you visit the BloodhoundSSC shop, you can buy some very simple models, ranging from 2 to 10 pounds

Here's some new pictures for those interested in the details.

They have announced that the car will run in the UK about Easter next year...

I think I'll need to update my SSC model to match this final(?) look of the car.
