Always enjoy building these kits from Aoshima. I chose to build my own version using some of the optional parts from the kit and used these wheels. I had some issues with paint work and after stripping the paint decided to go a different route and do a rusty styled build for a change. So I dedicate this build to Dr Cranky an old forum friend who loved his rust. Also some ideas and inspiration came from Low Standards Jay Skyline Work in progress Opened up the molded in grill detail and replaced with photo etch mesh. I 3D printed the engine and scratch built the bay building upon the chassis plate inner guards. As per usual on my over fender builds, Top Studio rivets were used. Hopefully the professor approves of the amount of pictures and the angles they were taken.🤣

Been awhile since ive completed a build. And like always my go to kits when trying to get back into building model cars are the Aoshima kits, I like them for the simplicity and ease of building. So I grab this kit out the stash and set about customising it to my favourite lowrider build style. Box art is just too cool with these kits. I shaved the door handles, scripts, fuel cap, front turn signals and wiper mounts. Fitted Pegasus #1311 DZ's wire wheels. I 3D printed and installed a chain steering wheel. Used optional part in the kit for the tail light panel set up. Aluminium tube for the exhaust tip. Modified the optional front grill by opening it up to install some photo etch mesh And like always paint is Tamiya TS-14 black, which was wet sanded and polished with the Tamiya compounds. And the interior is TS-49 bright red with flat clear over coat.
