This color seemed to be the most popular, at least in my mind. ? Beautiful model, Alex. A perfect example of a how a well-built, finished model should look. ?

Tamiya makes it look easy and for a box-stock this has decent detail. Great little kit.
Italianhorses Posted April 25, 2020 Author Posted April 25, 2020 Sorry for the disappearing pictures yesterday, these should be back up - seems that issue with Flickr is now resolved.

Funkychiken Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 Superb, looks like a daily runner fresh from the detailer...

Too bad you don't see these cars zipping around as much anymore, and if you do they are modified way beyond even remotely looking like this.

polybius Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Stunning! It's great to see one so accurately built and well done. The color, finish, and details are spot on and one is tempted to get in and drive it away!

Took couple of tries to get that "80-s blue" for the interior just right.
