Great foil and interior work Niko.  Those kit decals look really sharp, you've got me thinking about picking up one of these kits.

Thanx Tony :) !

 

Those decals, as well as the whole kit are really nice quality. This kit is absolutely worth buying and building because of the subject and the quality. :D

Thanks John!

Here is a minor update. I sprayed paint and clear to the Dashboard. I hope I can add some details tomorrow to it. Also the interior should be assembled soon....

Well I finally got the Dashboard detailed. The decals are from the kit, and then I did some detail painting and black washing to make it look more realistic. It still needs of course a Steering Wheel and Steering Column, but also a Tachometer. I will get back to the body soon.

Thanks Kerry, Brett, Jim and Chris! All of the nice words are appreciated. :) 

 

I got the interior pretty much done. I started by painting the Steering Wheel and steering column white. Then I Detail-painted the Steering wheel with silver and black and painted the Turn signal switch on the Steering Column too. Also I completed the Seat Belts. That joint in the middle is made from sheet styrene. Shifter is glued on, but I had a little problems with the decal on it. I still need to do some adjustments to get it fit. Then I just installed everything together and this is how it looks. Still I need to add Tachometer, but otherwise the interior is pretty much done.
