Hi everyone, Here are few pics of my first attemp at building this type of car. There are centainly a few parts that had fit issues,and I dont understand why the instructions call for the rear view mirror to be painted clear orange???. but anyway I had fun learning, hope you like her.

I wish my 1st attempts were 1/2 that nice. :lol:

I went another route and started this resin kit long before the Fujumi kits were available and for comparison here's an older IMC version too.

Wow Rex!! Those are beautiful builds. This one is a curbside so not to much details, I think there is an aftermarket engine for the one I just did,but not sure. When I get a chence to build another one, Ill try to get the engine upgrade.

Take care, Steve

That's a fabulous job! Amazed by the quickness of your work, you're at the top of both categories of WIP and Under Glass. Wonderful job on a significant vehicle, great paint and detail finish.

Congrats Misha

Hi Misha, I wanted to post the entire build but I was only allowed to post so many pics over at work in progress, Ill try to post some more of the builds tomorrow over at wip.

Take care,and thank you for the kind compliment, Steve :)

You can only post 10 photos per "post". After that you need to start replying to yourself to add the next 10 photos and so on.

Very nice job!

Really nice build....I have that kit, along with the resin engine from Historic Racing Miniatures, and plan on building it one of these days....if my paint and decals look as nice as yours I will be very happy....yours looks just beautiful......I was always a fan of the Gulf sponsored cars and this is a great example of maybe the most famous one of them.
