Thanks everyone for all the nice compliments. This is a nice kit, but has a lot of things that need to be addressed to make it a true replica. 1st off, on the box picture on the side shows the dash portion in the engine compartment
show it to be body color. This is not incorrect, it should be semi-gloss black. The rear axle has lot of play in it. They supply 8 poly caps, 2 for each wheel. I used 1 for the wheel and the other for an adjustable spacer. This allows for perfect positioning of the wheel placement. Next, the front wheels stick out too far. Tamiya uses a metal pin to hold them in place. to correct this, put only 1 poly cap in each wheel , trim the wheel hub back to the to of the cap using hobby cutters and then cut a 1/16" off the metal pin. This will give a perfect stance.Next the Interior, the tub is made up of 3 separate pieces. The dash/console, hatch area and the floor board. The door panel attach to the inside of the body. Make sure you paint the inside of the body to match your interior. also the sunroof edge need to be painted flat black, on the real car there is a black gasket around the sunroof that can be seen from the outside. I will post pictures of the 1to1 interior later today.
