mr moto Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 A quick fun little project to recharge my batteries. A Glencoe re-issue of an old ITC kit from about 1955. They don't get much older! The small size wasn't much of a problem because of the low parts count and minimal detail. I lowered the stance and replaced the wheels and tires with some from old Aurora Model Motoring cars. BTW, the Glencoe box art shows an XK-150 but I think ITC originally showed what was in the box. Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venom Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Cool!.... I like how the toothpicks in the background give some perception of the tiny scale👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spottedlaurel Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 What a charming little thing, really puts it into perspective when considering it's smaller than a typical HW/Matchbox diecast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippi Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 That's a good looking little Jag. I have trouble with the 1:25 scale so no way I could build one that small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bainford Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Wow, that a cool little model. Is it permissible to use the word 'cute'? Nice work in small scale. Very cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy grumpy Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 There may be less part count and details. But the work to achieve this is definitely there. My eyeballs hurt just thinking building something like this. Kudos to you and your skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr moto Posted November 23, 2021 Author Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) Thank you everyone. I swear it was easy! Glencoe offers a number of these mini-kits and I'll probably buy some more - after I build the Ferrari. They're great fun!
