I probably will too!!

Its a toss-up between these three; My original Airfix JB DB-5, which I just started yesterday, my Chitty Chitty Bang Bang....original, was still sealed, but I opened it since i'm going to build it too, and my Fujimi Ferrari 288 GTO kit No.9......VERY hard to find!!! -I don't care how rare, I build them all!!

great job!!, love this kit!

YES!!…...ANOTHER Cobra!!

This sure is looking beautifully realistic!!!!, hope you get back into it!!

A little update here; changing the wheels....

Thanks, Dan!

Thanks, Patrick!, those aren't decals, I hand painted everything.....basically three times, since I did three THIN coats of each kolor. The DB-5 is the Doyusha "Goldfinger" kit.

Thanks, Dennis!, Nice scratchbuilding!!, I don't mind you sharing here, I hope you start building yours again, and posting it here...….we can compare notes...lol

Thanks, Matt!, and I keep thinking that my $250 was a great deal...You'd be mental NOT getting it!!!

Thanks, Dennis!, so do I!!

Thanks, JC!, its one of my favorite Lamborghinis.

Here is the new firewall padding, i'm VERY happy with this one!

I will check it out, thanks!

I sure did!!….all of your builds

Thanks, Ashley!, I've got some neat techniques for this one!

Thanks, Chris!

Thank you!!

Thanks, Jason!!, I cant really remember...lol, I will get back to you on that.

They look VERY awesome!!!!…..nice job!!!

Anybody who knows me, knows that I rarely follow the instructions, so I've decided to start with the interior. After rounding-off all the edges that were too sharp, I used a white colored pencil to mark where I needed to scribe the stitching seam-lines. Lamborghinis back then were hand made, so I didn't scribe perfectly straight lines, and some plastic "sagging" was left to help create realism. I opened up the shifter hole, so that it could move through the gate better. I will be scratchbuilding new seatbelt tie-downs, interior light, newer e-brake, better center counsel knobs, firewall trim that goes behind the headrests, and whatever else pops into my head as I go along. After painting over the speaker grilles with flat white, I drilled-out the holes. There were too many holes compared to my reference photo, so I drilled-out every other hole, and it looks great! To make it easier to fill, and sand the joint-seam on both sides of the guage enclosure, I first cut out the gauges, then glued, and sanded the two dash halves. I sanded off the stereo since i'm going to scratchbuild a newer one, and I cut the seatbelt slots where they retract to. Lastly, I stripped ALL the chrome parts.....especially that CRAPPY gold stuff!!!

Hey everyone!, this is gonna be my first ever large scale build......and my last. A friend of mine gave me this kit, and I said that I don't normally do large scale, but if I did, it would be a Countach, so here I am! I say "upgrade", because EVERYBODY builds this kit as the kit specifies...….NOT me, I will be turning it into a later model 500s, while getting inspiration from the lesser-known Twin Turbo prototype, so there will be a TON of scratchbuilding involved! -thanks for checking it out!

I've decided that i'm not totally happy with my firewall padding, so I am going to redo it with a bit thicker piece of sheet styrene.....same technique though.

Thanks, Ray!!

Thanks, Trevor!!
