1977 McLaren M24 - Tom Sneva

[ModelcarJR]

This is a resin and white metal kit from Silver City Models. Its a replica of the Indy car that Tom Sneva broke the 200 MPH barrier at IMS in May, 1977. Its painted with Tamiya TS-23 Light Blue and Dupli-Color Pure White. I added AMT wheels and tires,  plug wires, a wickerbill on the rear wing, mirror foil on the mirror faces, and IndyCal decals for the body and tires. I'll polish it a little more after I'm sure the decals are good and dry. It proved to be challenging but it builds up to a very nice replica. I'll write up some pros and cons in my WIP in the next few days!  Thanks for looking! ?
