Finally done! I wanted to build a "back to basics" car, no plug wires, no weathering, no resin parts... just something simple and enjoyable.. I think I accomplished it. Let me know what you think!

Color is Tamiya Coral Blue and Racing White. The BMF was actually very enjoyable on this kit as well.

Here are some indoor shots as soon as it was completed.

Thanks folks. I can't believe I forgot to clean up the casting lines on the back of the trunk lid. I went over this whole car cleaning up the body before paint... completely overlooked that one. Pictures really bring it out too... whoops.
