Thats looking good. Engine detail is really making it pop. Keep on it.

Thanks for the tip Jarius. I will give it a try next time I take pics.

Here is the completed build. This was a fun build. Kinda got me hooked on these Tamiya kits now. Here is the logistics of the build. Paint is Dupli-Color Med Garnet Red Met with Silver Met on bottom. Dupont clear. Paint is from a rattle can. XS Tunning wheels and tires. Felt for carpet. 94 Vette seats and shifter. F&F Eclipse e-brake and fire ext. Reworked the rear spoiler to do away with rear wiper. BMF emblems with red sharpie highlights. All detail paint was done with Tamiya paints. Custom exhaust. Hope you enjoy.

I like it. Great work.

Looks good. I like the color.

That is sweet MJ. Where do you come up with these ideas?

Nice Vette. Never go wrong with a red Vette.

Had fun at the 2 shows this weekend. Here is what I brought home minus a few built ups.

Looking good Ken.

Way cool Ford PU.

Good start to a very cool lil car.

Very nice looking Type 2's. You really nailed the look on each one.

The CRX is just about finished. Only a few minor things and put everything in place. Interior Chassis Body

Nice start on the bike. That car is looking sweet. What body/kit is that?

Update on CRX. Interior shot (no flocking. its felt with sticky backing) Tailight & Dash

Cool build. Its nice to find your old builds. Here is one of mine from over 20 yrs ago. Jo-Han 70 442. Built after I read an article in SAE.

I like it. Used to paint all the Rocket Chassis from Mark Richards Racing. Great job on that chassis. Is it safe to say its a GRT?

I bought the Tamiya CRX kit and now I'm kinda hooked on these kits.

I picked up most of these at my LHS. They had them marked down to $12.00-$15.00 each. Used my leftover vacation money. ;D Still have my stash for the 2 upcoming shows. 1st pic (all but the Mazda from LHS) 2nd pic (2 on the left from LHS other 2 E-bay) 3rd pic (from LHS)
