Bill B Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) This is my first completed model in several decades, so it's a little rough. It's a Minicraft snap kit, so there is no chassis, or engine detail. It's still lacking some exterior detail (wind screen, mirrors,seat belts), but when the paint started cracking real bad I decided to stick a fork in it. If there was anything for me to take away from this build it would be to plan my work out more carefully, and not just work on what I wanted when I wanted. (Things don't fit so well if you don't plan ahead lol) Whoa! I hope I posted the photos correctly, they are really big. Well! On to the next project.

Justin Porter Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 That Minicraft TR3 is a struggle on its best day. It's unfortunate that the Gunze Sangyo Triumph TR2 through 3A kits will probably never see the light of day again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
