1:20 Studio 27 WR3 Keke's ride

[Belugawrx]

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

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...

Outstanding build you have. I like the colors. Looks much better than the wolf livery.

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
