I built this as a kid several times and hated it. Decided to build it again a few years ago and still hated it! lol You did a good job building it.

Great job on this one Dante! James, you think this kit is bad? I had both the Momogram hard top and convertible when it came out too. Ugh!

Yeah, i like the engine detail but i found the chassis, interior and body fitment to suck. Each one i built ended up smashed to bits and the engine/trans used for something else.

I had problems with this as well. When I tried to put the body on it would not sit flush in the front and kept popping upwards. To get it to sit flush and stay that way I had to file down the exhaust pipes coming from under the engine. They left no clearance between them and the bottom of the rear bumper. If you look at the trunk/hood you can also see the fitment issue where it does not sit flush from left to right. I tried bending the lid,heating it nothing worked. It's just warped somehow out of the box. I also have an issue with the width of the tires,the 1:1 version does not have an offset that wide at all

I'm glad to hear it was just me! lol That is what i encountered every time i built it, never felt like trying to fix it either. By the time it came to mount the chassis and body i was fed up with the whole kit.
