Chinacar Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Beautiful clean build of an iconic car! I've built a couple of the Fujimi kits and you really have done this kit justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace-Garageguy Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Pretty baby. The real ones never looked that good until they were restored many years after last turning a wheel in battle. Are the seat ventilator rings PE or paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Chernosky Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Very well executed. Those ventilator rings in the seats must have been a real terror. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkJ Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Superlative in every way. The cleanliness of build and quality of the finish is through the roof remarkable. Thanks for posting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan31 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Gorgeous job on that black paint, well done. To make your build more accurate and unique, so many other builds are missing the New Zealand Silver Fern on the right fender. And the wheels...

Gramps46 Posted Tuesday at 10:40 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:40 PM I have been fascinated by the wheels and tires on the 1:1 winner. The #2 car started the race on Firestones (Amon and McLaren were contracted to Firestone) and finished on Goodyears and the color of the wheels varied as well. The reason was rain. I have read that Shelby decided that Goodyear had a better rain tire and had the #2 switched over to the Goodyear rain tires during the race. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
