That’s “BITCHEN”!!

Looks great!! I am a little hesitant to try weathering. I feel it’s a art form all on it’s own.
Waiting for your next update

That’s just beautiful Chris, amazing job. Is this a MFH kit?
It’s a Tamiya kit, added some extra detail that wasn’t in the kit.
I think MFH makes a 1/20

Thank you all!!

I have spent the better part of 2 years on this build.

Hello all. After a couple of years of off and on time to put this build together, I finally have finished.
I will say the journey has been fun, frustrating and a big learning experience.
After looking over the finished product I have decided that I will re do this car again. I see some room for improvement!
I would like to say thanks to all that have posted kind words. It does mean a lot!! And for all you people out there just stopping by, Thank you as well.
I will be soon starting another project soon.

I got the rear wing installed, windshield & I put the nose on just for the pictures.
All I have left to do is rear view mirrors and wheels and tires...
With the rain and cold weather I will have to wait.
Thanks again for your kind words. It does mean a lot to me.

Getting there. I had a chance to finish the exhaust, hang the sway bar links and attach the trumpets.
Hope you like.

I have been collecting parts for this build for about a year of searching on e bay. I was just going to do the 78 version with the after market parts I collected. But one morning I stumbled on a MFH conversation kit. So here I am, I don’t know how long this will take. I just hope I can do it justice by taking my time.
I will not be using the rain tires. That’s about it.
I started on the fuel cell. I spent about 45 min filing and drilling for the rivets. And I am not even close to being ready for primer.
