PatW Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I finished this today. As the body is too big for my paintbooth I polished the body with micro-gloss............. And a few more pics to come............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 And these are the other few................ It is also the first time for me to paint whitewalls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62rebel Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 turned out nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) Cheers 62rebel, yes it's not too bad. The plastic is pretty soft and the instructions are not quite straightforward. I would have fitted the doors better if I'd had test fitted them before putting the wings (fenders) on. The glass in the front doors slides up and down nicely.

sjordan2 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Great job on what I've heard is a nightmare of a kit, with warped bodies and horrible parts fit. I'm impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sportabout Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Great job. This is a quite challenging kit I made cabriolet years go. Only complaint is steering wheel position that should be like in this picture when wheels are straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm confused. Firstly this thread shows 'no replies' when clearly there are ten. Secondly the thread has been moved. Thirdly there's no area on this forum to query things to find out why these are wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace-Garageguy Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Nice work on one of the shining examples of the French alternate-reality approach to vehicle design in the '50s and '60s. Love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
