Bugatti 35A "Tecla"

[curt raitz]

A yellow Bugatti...?

A good friend gave me this kit to build, not sell on ebay

It has been a long time since I've tackled one of these Revival kits...everything is held together by itty-bitty screws and superglue

To my surprise, when I opened the box everything was Bugatti Blue instead of Yellow,

but I was already set on the Yellow

Sanded and primed the blue away and painted it Rustoleums "Marigold" Yellow

Boy...I had forgot how much cleanup was necessary on all the metal parts

Really-Really nice Wire Wheels...decided to go with a silver finish on the wheels instead of black

well here it is:

Thanx for lookin'...

Wow , that is really nice ! It looks good in yellow too !

I vaguely remember seeing these kits years ago , what scale is it ? The details and the wire wheels look amazing .

Very nice Curt!!! The whole thing looks great.

Terrific job. Looks like the real thing. These 1:20 Revival kits are quite nice (and expensive)

thanx

It is 1/20th scale, but it does seem a little large in comparison to other models I have in that scale
