MFH 250 GTO

[250 Testa Rossa]

I am struggling with building an MFH 250 GTO. I completed the engine, and the front suspension. The trouble I am having mostly is with the body. I drilled out the front hole in the nose, and I messed it up so badly that I tried to correct the body and never succeeded, even after fifteen attempts. I need help with the model, as it is my first resin kit. I am also trying to get a new body for it as well. I am in desperate need of help, and I want to get this model done right.

Okay! First post a pic of the damage and we will will tell you the best way to fix it!Resin is brittle and can shatter easily.Extra care must be taken when cleaning it up. Post a few pics and we will go from there!

It's pretty bad. I posted them on my Fotki site. http://public.fotki.com/KidCharlemagne/250-gto-damaged-body/

WOW I don't want to sound cold but did you drop this body? Most everything you showed is repairable,but that windshield post is bad news.Even repaired it will always be a weak point and may not even hold up to an aggressive polishing. I'd cross my fingers & toes that MFH gets back to you about a replacement body.
