I started out planning on using most of the kit, but only ended up using the body, radiator and front end. Built or re-used everything else. The kit engine is smaller than the one in the pics with still decent detail. There's not a whole lot of detail in my opinion... then again, there's not a whole lot to the kit. It's pretty basic (maybe the 1:1 is the same, I don't know). For the cost of the kit I was a little let down.
