Yeah I know it's been just over a year since this was posted, but I only just found it, so...

Love the lines of this car, and the Fiji Blue really suits it. Going to try find this kit for sale here in NZ, but may take some time - Scott, I'll be using your WiP as a guide, hope you don't mind.

Thanks Ian. Pretty much your typical Tamiya build that had no issues. Just opened the box and it fell into place. This was a quick, fun, easy build. Feel free to use my WIP thread.

Thanks, matey. Already been through the WiP, Scott... managed to get the kit on eBay last night. Bought it from the 'old Country' and including postage, still cheaper than I can get the kit over the counter here !!

This is such a beautiful build. THe original wheels look too tiny but these fill up the wheel well perfectly. I got a set of Aoshima TE37 for mine. ANy tips on how to mount them easily?

Very sharp looking car, very clean build! Great color and great finish too. Well done!

Thank you very much. Check my WIP thread. It shows how I took the dremel and ground down the center out of the wheel. Then I took some round styrene and made some wheel pins.

Sorry, my bad for having you repeat. Saw the WIP thread after going through previous comments. Once again, such a finely done build.
Although I'm staying away from the original mirrors. Is it just me or do they look too big on the Tamiya kit?

Nice Mitsubishi build you got there Scott, and certainly in a diorama setting or an outdoor setup this scale model car would look realistic.
