Hi. This is Italeris new Alfa kit. A very good kit without major problems, just some ejection and sinkmarks to deal with. I choose to do the version that was driven by Helle Nice, a female driver from that era, I liked the color of that car ? The only modifications I did was that I molded in a rear view mirror and changed the little scoop on the hood. In the Algerian GP she used the #2 on her car so I could use the decals from the kit, I did then paint with a brush the decals with matt white so it would look hand painted as they were at that time.I have used differnt hex bolts on the engine and dashboard and rivets on the body, the seat covering is made from a wallpaper with an alcantara surface :-). Painting by Tamiya spraycan TS-15 and the lighter shade is called Ford Olympic blue, a color made for Belkits Escort MkI, thought that looked good Thomas

Very very good work Tomasz ! ?

Welcome back Tomasz ! And thanks :-) I´m glad if I could be to any help. Your Fiat looks great!! Thomas

Nice work ? ,done a couple of this kit, one more in the stash ? like this car alot !!

Thanks Tomasz :-) and everybody else too ! And now the Abarth version is released, I wonder...

Great job on both models, and the detailing is very good :-) The Ronnie Lotus makes me happy :-)

Really nice start Bruce :-)

Well done Bruce ! Looks very good, be proud :-) Thomas

Liked it a lot ! Well done :-)

Hi. Just for fun :-) I did some kind of a wannabe race car. Added some extras on the engine and under the front hood. Put a race seat in with belt. The dash got switches and a tachometer. Extra headlights was scratched and also "straps" or what you call it on the front hood. A very nice kit , very fun to build :-) Thomas

Thanks :-) The chrome parts is Molotovs chromepen , used it in my airbrush as it is

Thanks all ? I used a chromepen as a base för the tail lights , followed by modelmasters clear red 4630.

Thanks! They are open, old kit but not so bad.

Hi I decided to try to build this kit oob, but I did some detailing. Mostly rivets , bolts , hoses,wires, and some other stuff. Modified the headlights protection shield, made a shield in the front too. The exhaust got a new support. Painted with Tamiya spraycan TS9. The bodypart is painted with an airbrush, a mix of Humbrol 3 and black then satin varnish. The leather straps works :-) A very old kit with lack of details but not so bad :-) Thomas

Thank you very much ! I´m very glad you liked it :-) I saw Peters build and it was amazing ! I recall he did some modifactions on the engine and some other nice stuff too. Thomas

Hi.I built this kit many years ago, I think the kit is great ! Plenty of room for detailing. If I built it today , I probably added much more stuff :-) Thomas

Thanks all of you :-)

Hi Now my Fiat is finished, thanks for your support along the way :-) Thomas

Thanks cato! It´s soon finished, put it in a new thread then. Fixed my picture problem too :-)

The kit is good! No major problems at all, some errors in the manual regarding painting, better follow your refs. The valve springs need to be replaced, looks toyish.The seat in the kit is wrong compared with the original one in the car today. I´m glad you like it :-) My problem just now is to get the pictures right :-(

Don´t have that link ! but found another way, but the picture is huge ! Hate computers...

Hmm, there is something I don´t get right, but there is no link called BBCode anywere ?!

It´s the same as the links above, but still don´t know how to get the pictures directly into the thread..I hope someone can help me:-) Thomas
