Belugawrx Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 So Teddy Yip buys a WR3 from Walter Wolf, and, in the 11th race of 1978, the German Grand Prix,..he puts Keke Rosberg behind the wheel... Keke manages a 10th place finish,.. This is a model of that car... The next race at Silverstone, he wins the 1978 BRDC International Trophy... in the pouring rain ! The kits comes with p/e parts, white metal parts, and decals for two different cars. The donor is the Tamiya Wolf WR1. I used Duplicolor primer and paints, with a couple coats of Alclad Aqua Gloss clear coat. I didn't add much, other than fuel lines, oil lines, and some electrics.. Cheers all
Belugawrx Posted March 12, 2020 Author Posted March 12, 2020 Thanks guys, I liked this build...and JC I still have that WR1 to build...haven't decided whether to build it as the Wolf, or maybe Desire Wilson's 1980 ride...
Chris Smith Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Outstanding build you have. I like the colors. Looks much better than the wolf livery.
Deathgoblin Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Um.... Wow! Looks like you could get in and start it. Fantastic job!
Rich Chernosky Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Outstanding build, superb attention to detail...thanks for sharing.

Belugawrx Posted March 18, 2020 Author Posted March 18, 2020 Thanks to all that dropped by and commented... I appreciate it. This was one of those models that came together fairly painlessly, I wish for more of those for us all! Cheers
