Finished this one last night, the last Johan kit in my stash.  Got it off ebay several years ago and it was missing the engine, built it as a curbside slump buster.  Tamiya TS-60 Pearl Green.  Foiling was a patience tester but I think it came out alright.  Comments welcome, thanks for looking.

Always good to see these old Jo-Hans getting the treatment they deserve. Nicely made Bruce.

Wonder what became of all the molds of these kits? Bit sad to think they were just lost to history.

Very nicely done. I like how you chose the black wall tire option. It gives it a real ‘mainstream’ look. I have this one in my collection and I’m really looking forward to building it. It’s great to see it built up so well. In the second to last picture it looks like the headlights are on!

Many thanks for all the comments!  I would have used the thin whitewalls but they weren't concentric on the tires so I turned the blackwalls out.  I think it looks better.

Very clean build on a rarely seen model. Chrome appears to have a very nice shine. I've had issues with duller chrome on some (but not all) of the older Johan kits.
