Magnifier 1/12 GT40 part 1

[kpnuts]

Hi all well this is done but with the lighting I feel 10 pics is not enough so will post this in 2 parts, it is a great kit with only a couple of minor flaws, well make that 3

1 on distributor included with kit (but that is easily scratch built)

2 the working steering is useless it only turns about 19 degrees.

3 well I suppose I could include this with 2 the steering is not anchored in any way (so the steering wheel can be pulled up and down which disengage the drive.

Other than that everything fits well. I know it seems silly but one of the details that really impressed me is the individually turned air valves for the wheels.

Super job and the display you built and the working lights is icing on the cake.  If you build the MENG kit it would be nice to know what you think.  The reviews are mixed and it does no not seem to be worth the higher cost.  I out love to see a 1/12 kit of the MKIV as it seems to have gotten overlooked in the Ford vs. Ferrari hype.  Even a Fujumi MKIV would in 1/24 would be a welcome kit too.

I agree with Rex,super job. I hope mine will be 1/4 as nice if and when I ever get around to it.

Someone said the control box spoilt the look of it so I moved it and painted it black

Hard to spoil a beautiful build but I agree hiding the box behind the wall puts the attention where it should be.  ?
