Keeping the them of Nissans going, started working on this one

Body out of the box


since I think more work is needed on doing the decals then building the kit, started with getting the body painted, so up first, masking the the body do the black on the rear

and the body with the tape removed and the first few light coats of testors metallic black


and started working on the chassis, up first the brakes and rear suspension

Ahh yes. This one will prove way more difficult that the last r34 you built. But i think you will be abel to hit a home run on it

[martinfan5]

Well, I hope so Gary

A little bit more work on the chassis, front and rear suspension in place

and started working on the interior

and got the red on the body, but had a little set back, I left the tape on the black a little to long, and now have tape residue, so I am going to have to do another coat, or try and remove it.

Guess I should get this update, still working on it, and trying to not mess it up more then I already have lol
Got the tires done, and man did they fight all the all, from the getting the hub in the center of the wheel, to the lettering transfer, I will say, that I am glad that they give an extra one of each tire transfer

got the grill piece in place, I used a C/F decal on the top part, also the headlights and taillights are in place
