hogs29 Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 This is one I finished up just a few weeks ago. Other than the Crazy Modeller emblems (awesome little pieces) and Model Factory Hiro enameled badges (more awesome pieces) this was a box stock build. Paint is Tamiya Camel Yellow with TS-13 clear. I know it's much darker than the factory yellow, but I like it better than the washed out yellow Ferrari offers. I had a little fun making a custom plate with the ACME Platemaker. I can dream right?
white00gt Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 looks great I saw 1:1 550 today odly enough at a hyundai(think I spelled that right )dealership here in Meriden CT awsome looking car , you did justice to the real one I really like the yellow you used better.....Great job!!!!! BTW where do you get your kits from been having a hard time finding local hobby shop that has a good variety
ismaelg Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Beautiful! I have the Fujimi 575 which is pretty much the same kit. Any problems in your build? anything we should look out for? Thanks,
crispy Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Beautiful build! Very clean execution. I keep hearing about how great the crazy modeler emblems are, now I may have to get me some. Chris

cruz Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 They don't get any better than that.......... 8) 8) 8)
hogs29 Posted March 14, 2007 Author Posted March 14, 2007 Thanks guys! Ismael, there really were no quirks with the kit. It went together sort of like a Tamiya kit. The only problem I had, and I don't know if this was just an odditiy with the one I had, was the rear axle shaft. The one in my box was about 1" too short, and I had to make my own, which was no big deal at all. Harry, I bought mine from Model Express. I've always gotten the best service there.
