Well I got the Tunturi back Yesterday. A couple of guys had seen it very near where it was stolen, and on Sunday when my friend was buying Ice Cream at local Gas Station, then my Tunturi came there to be refueled. The guy who stole it, didn't pay for the gas, but he managed to put some Two Stroke Oil to the Tank also. He called the Police and they stopped the guy even if he tried to get away. Only the Steering Lock is now a bit broken, but otherwise it works fine! I just bought the biggest lock I could find for it so it is not that easy to steal it again.....

About Me
I was born in 1996 and started building when I was six years old. Usually I build old American Cars or Trucks, but I build also old European Rally cars. I like Drag Racing very much and that's why I'm building lots of Drag Cars. I really don't build Box Stock, well sometimes yes, but usually I like to at least, add some details. I like Old School style, on Drag Cars or Street Cars.
There's one thing, I hate: Big wheels with low profile tires... And I mean bigger than 15"... They just look awfull. I like building clean, and finished cars, but sometimes rusty Rat Rods or Junkyard cars are on my bench too. Right now I have '67 Mustang fastback, it'll be in the Junkyard.
I like 1:1 cars too, just like scale models, Old School style. Can't wait to get driver's license, but before that, I drive with My Moped, '80 Tunturi Trial. On our family, we have '60 Chevy Impala 2D HT and '74 Chevelle Stock Eliminator Drag Car Project. Few months ago, we sold the '79 Skyhawk because of the Chevelle.
And oh yes, I'm from Finland. That's in Northern Europe, Scandinavia. I speak Finnish as my native language, so my english isn't also perfect, but I'm trying my best.

A Question:
Can people from countries other than USA and Canada participate in this? I know the shipping is a bit more expensive to here, but if I'd take something from here, then I had to pay the shipping to USA when I'd post something up too?

I have this kit and I built it years ago. I have been thinking that why people say that the Fenders don't fit... In my kit I had absolutely no problem with them. But I remember that the engine in this kit is Way too small and quite simple also. So a different engine from some other kit might be a good idea.

This turned out very nice! You did great job with the Body Conversion, actually that's something that I have wanted to do for a long time also. Nice work with the paint and finishing also, it looks just like ready kit from Revell or Moebius, all parts fit so well etc. Great job.

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.
