G' Day folks, Saw a documentry on TV about this car, then the opportunity came when a fellow model builder was selling a few kits, he had this one, so I grabbed it because I have never built a JoHan before . For it's age, it was in pretty good shape apart from the tyres, I used some spares I had in my parts box. I've gone for the factory look and the colour choice was tough but in the end I settled for Testors Deep Maroon. The paint chip chart showed a Grenadier Red which looks like Maroon anyway. I used Tamiya finishing compounds instead of a clear coat. The final assembly was very tricky, especially mounting the separate wheel wells inside the body, the stance looked odd so I modified the front end to give it a more realistic look. Anyway here she is Cheers Ray
