Thank you!

This looks fantastic! Nice, clean build, and the interior looks great. Following this for sure. I also use the liquid glue method over removed details to help prevent ghosting through lacquer. It's worked well for years.

As someone who has a healthy love of all things Fiat, I'm super excited to see this build. Very, very cool. The work on the seats alone is a testament to your patience. Following this for sure.

It looks great, bang on color choice! I remember when this model first came out in 1998 or so, and almost nobody knew what a cool kit it was. This is one I wish they would reissue, just as it was.

Even though I've been building plastic kits for the last half-century, I took a little slowdown/break over the last 24 months. While I was looking for some kits online, I came across this forum. As someone who has been involved in scale auto modeling for a really long time, you would think I would know about MCM, but I guess you learn something new every day. So here I am. I build a lot of different stuff - muscle cars, pickups, 4x4s, street rods, and yes, even imports. As someone who has also been involved in the 1:1 car world for 4+ decades, my interests are all over the map. I've done the hot rod thing with a '53 Ford pickup (got a tribute build of that one on the bench right now), the muscle car thing with a '68 Barracuda, the 4x4 thing with a K5 Blazer and my Jeep Wrangler, and I've even managed to get into the air-cooled VW scene for a dozen years. You never know what you're going to find on my workbench (or in the garage). One thing is for sure. After all this time, I 'm finding that I really enjoy the journey more than the destination, in as much as kits go. So you'll probably see a hundred mock-ups or projects under construction, along with a bunch of ideas bouncing off the walls, but don't hold your breath waiting for a completed build. I do get kits finished, sometimes. Mostly. Maybe. Thanks for having me along. -DJ

That's outstanding. I love the interior, including that B&M-style ratchet shifter. It makes me wish I still had this kit in my stash.

I'm not a huge fan of green, but that looks really good!
