Jim N Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 I bought this one a number of years ago and it sat in the closet. Finally started it about 6 months ago. It's built box stock. The body is painted Tamiya Dark Blue and the remainder is painted per the instructions. I did not trust the decals due to age, so I bought a set from Studio 27. I did not mess with the tires. I will scuff them and remove the mold ring, but they are so old, I was not sure they would handle the abuse. I colored the Goodyear lettering on the back tires with a gel pen and the fronts are decals. Anyway, it was a fun kit to build, but it shows its age in a number of places. Thanks for looking.
Peter Lombardo Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 really nice.... I have had this in the closet for years too... one of these days..... oh well and smart to get a new set of decals. looks great.
Jim N Posted July 5, 2019 Author Posted July 5, 2019 Thanks for the kind words everybody. I appreciate it.
bbowser Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Great model out of the closet! We don't see enough open wheel cars on here.I
PatW Posted July 12, 2019 Posted July 12, 2019 Superb, I remember these when they were on track in the day!
Matt Bacon Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Looks fantastic. I didn’t know this existed. I really want one now. I didn’t have a full on Scalextric set as a teenager, but I had this car. We won races in half a dozen households against all comers, because the Wolf stuck to the track like glue, whilst the the Martini Brabham fell over, and the Tyrell struggled to accelerate out of corners. For most tracks my friends built, you could pin the Wolf and take all the corners flat... beat, M.
Twokidsnosleep Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Excellent result. For an old girl she is quite a looker
