Love the lines of this car, and the Fiji Blue really suits it. Going to try find this kit for sale here in NZ, but may take some time - Scott, I'll be using your WiP as a guide, hope you don't mind. Ian. Thanks Ian. Pretty much your typical Tamiya build that had no issues. Just opened the box and it fell into place. This was a quick, fun, easy build. Feel free to use my WIP thread.

IJ001 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Thanks, matey. Already been through the WiP, Scott... managed to get the kit on eBay last night. Bought it from the 'old Country' and including postage, still cheaper than I can get the kit over the counter here !! Ian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E. Raza Ronny Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 This is such a beautiful build. THe original wheels look too tiny but these fill up the wheel well perfectly. I got a set of Aoshima TE37 for mine. ANy tips on how to mount them easily? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake45 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Very sharp looking car, very clean build! Great color and great finish too. Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows how I took the dremel and ground down the center out of the wheel. Then I took some round styrene and made some wheel pins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw the WIP thread after going through previous comments. Once again, such a finely done build. Although I'm staying away from the original mirrors. Is it just me or do they look too big on the Tamiya kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglia105E Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Nice Mitsubishi build you got there Scott, and certainly in a diorama setting or an outdoor setup this scale model car would look realistic. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
