As for the Revell/Aurora MKI - it is really a decent kit and goes together better than the IMC ones.

    Speaking of the IMC kit - I could not resist buying this never opened one.

  2. post-13094-0-72055400-1395965531_thumb.jI have built both the IMC and MPC ones and they both are not perfect but they beat the alternative cost wise.

    As far as the Daytona Coupe goes the HRM one is a bargain compared to the Japanese ones and is far more detailed and accurate than the Gunze Sanyo one.
    However, at almost $200 it is not cheap but is a model at a whole other level.

    The Daytona coupe pictured was NOT build by me but I built the GT's and slept at a Holiday Inn once.post-13094-0-01727000-1395965812_thumb.j

  3. Here is an almost complete Thunder Valley kit with the Fujumi donor kit plus a lot of HRM parts. It's ends up being pretty comparable to the Lemans Miniatures ones except it has an engine. It's pictured with the IMC GT40 and the Mirage by Mini Exotics.post-13094-0-56677200-1395870498_thumb.jpost-13094-0-53337900-1395870502_thumb.jpost-13094-0-41074200-1395870507_thumb.j

  4. My caster said the dash he did was a pain in the butt. If he wants to do some more that will be probably later this year this year after we get the small stuff knocked out. I don't want to overburden him. I do not have any leads on the wheels but I'll look in my stash - I may have a set I got from R&M of Maryland. :(

  5. I picked this up from a Ebay seller this week. I've been on the hunt for one for many years at a decent price.

    Needless to say I finally scored one. I have not inspected the kit but it looks pretty good.

    I have to consider it's a Japanese kit and it was designed to be motorized.

    I'll have to look at it piece by piece to give a full report.

    For now enjoy pictures of a really rare kit that you just do not see very often.

  6. I asked my caster to make up five sets of the parts w/o the dash. I'll go back to look to see who were the first five to reply and contact the folks. Price will be $25 plus $3 shipping so we will figure out the payment details once I get the parts which should be in about 3-4 weeks. Once you guys give me feedback we will start on round 2 of filling orders.

    Please note in the picture there are three set of parts and all the original parts some of which I did not cast (dash, steering wheel),

    The $25 will be for one set (not three as shown) and it will include the tail light housing and red clear taillights so everything you see in resin.

    Ping me if you have any other questions.
