This is an older kit that I got from Bob Dudek. He started the bodywork, filled in all the nooks and crannies, then handed it to me. I assembled the chassis, engine and other bits then off to the paint booth. I used all tamiya colours starting with primer, then painted the engine Blue Violet, chassis is French Blue, body is Bright Orange. Still lots to do from painting the plastic tires to adding all the finishing bits

Looking good, Howard

Crazy color scheme but I think I like it.

Hey, little hint for you Howard. If you are using the 2 piece kit tires, use super glue and clamp them tight. After sanding the tread area, the seam will be gone.

Looking great, I have one on the back burner. Bright yellow and red.

Here is how my tires came out. I did not paint them black first either.

Very very nice so far

I've got the same kit waiting in the wings. I'll be very interested to see your build.
