This color seemed to be the most popular, at least in my mind. ? Beautiful model, Alex. A perfect example of a how a well-built, finished model should look. ?

Tamiya makes it look easy and for a box-stock this has decent detail. Great little kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad you don't see these cars zipping around as much anymore, and if you do they are modified way beyond even remotely looking like this.

polybius Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Stunning! It's great to see one so accurately built and well done. The color, finish, and details are spot on and one is tempted to get in and drive it away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took couple of tries to get that "80-s blue" for the interior just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
