bbowser Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) Out of my comfort zone a bit with this one, opening doors and all, but I'm pleased with how it came out. The kit is built OOB and the fit a detail are pretty good IMO. Comments welcome, thanks for looking.

Kit Basher Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 That looks great! I have this kit on my "To Do" list. I hope mine comes out half as nice as yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgabreu Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I don't think I've ever seen this model built- nice job! I like the color. I have one of these that I started a while back. I was kind of surprised at how well molded and engineered it was for a kit that was tooled in '64.Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyRed Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I really like this car and you did an excellent job on it.My only question, since no else asked, is will it do 185? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Bacon Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Great job... and I know how challenging it is! Very nice colour combination, and it is such an achingly stylish car to have on the cabinet...Time to do the DB4 next? ;-Pbest,M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry P. Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Very nice! Looks like you got all the opening panels to fit quite well, which makes a huge difference when you see the model all closed up. Excellent job. But i do question the use of a 2x4 as a hood prop. Not very Italian. You might want to scratch something up from wire, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very Italian. You might want to scratch something up from wire,LOL! I just grabbed a couple toothpicks off the bench for the pictures but you're right, a bit crude in 1/24 scale.

sjordan2 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) Actually, it's 1:25. The wire wheels are okay, but hard to find better replacements. For those interested in the kit, note that it's the 2nd generation fuel-injected GTi version, though many owners reverted to the Weber carb version. Not a tremendously accurate kit, but the only game in town, and this is as good a box-stock build as you'll find anywhere – just excellent.

bbowser Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 Thanks Skip! I don't know a lot about these exotics under the skin, just that they're about as sexy as it gets on the outside. I have the DB4 in the stash for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
