Very sharp build!

Lovely even red base coat, rest of the build is cool! Really like this kit!

Agree, amazing build so far, and the paint is perfect!

Thanks Spike!

It's an absolute stunner! Looks like you've put a lot of work in here, and it's paid off.

TO adjust the ride height, I added some olasticard to raise the axle bar by 3mm at the front and 2mm at the back, thenadded some blocks under the interior tb to stick to the chassis, as it was leaving a gap. TO my mind, the ride height has been corrected, and it looks a lot better as a GT then as an SUV... Next up will post ome finished pictures!

Final touches are now done! I made an exhaust tip with large diamter alu tube - I did thin-down the end as much as possible, and then put the wing and diffuser in place. I'm calling this done now, I do need to take some proper pictures and post in finished models! Really happy how it turned out for a kit that cost less than £20!

Sharp build, the body paint came out perfectly

Stunning build mr Cruz!

The wheels on this are a strange assembly and required fettling to fit, but they are in now. Engine in & interior fitted. During a mock up, the exhausts were not quite centered, so I've had to cut off the bottom end of the left hand side support, but this has made the engine slightly wonky, I'm sure this will be OK in the end. As shown before, the engine bay lid is wonky, so I've spent most of my time getting the magnets in place and some supports for them, that required me to cut out the engine cowl.

Started this a few months ago, I'll share some progress! Its a car that spent a lot of time on posters on my walls as a kid. I'd never actually want to own one, it'd be a money pit, but I still love its style. Box art: Body was twisted heavily at the front, I use this technique whereby you over-twist in the opposing direction & leave in a hot area - like over a radiator. It doesn't always work, but on this one it did, but took about a month with increasing twist every time... in the mock up, there were two issues, firstly, the bonnet was wider by a noticable amount, maybe 0.75mm, which ive corrected by sanding down with a rotary tool & then finishing by hand through sand paper grades. the 2nd issue is that the car sits really high, probably about 3mm too high, its not going to be an easy fix, but I'm going to have a go. finally, whilst sorting out the body issues, I;ve painted th engine bits, ready for assembly.

The final piece to paint is the tail light I've painted the black, but want to clear coat it, so waiting for that...

Cool build!

Pretty cool build Mr G!

It's a beautiful subject and build!

That's crazy beautiful, 3D printing is soon going to be the wat to go!

Beautifully finished!
