Thanks for clearing that up. I was actually going to accuse you of making that mistake but was a little confused myself. The KA set is excellent and has two steering wheel options. It also has great instrument panel details including keys and keychains! For future reference (I'm assuming you'll build this again at some point), the Hobby Design photoetch set is probably the best one available. It isn't very expensive and includes lots of stuff not included in other sets. For one, it includes the wire wheel spokes, which is a much cheaper option than buying either the KA wheel set or the Hasegawa one [you have to modify the kit wheels to accept the pe parts, but the results are great looking wheels]. It also includes parts to create that electronics panel under the dash--yes, every one of those tiny little components needs to be folded and attached to the circuit board!

Anyway, that color scheme is spectacular. i'm glad you went with the French blue. I've been thinking about doing my next one in that yellow with a green scallop, imagining some Brazilian driver's private vintage racer.3

I will probably go with the HD photoetched set next time... I've had nothing but good luck with their PE sets in the past. I like the idea of the yellow and green... sort of like the 0738 car's color scheme, but with the green continuing as a stripe? Sounds cool!

A truly beautiful model of a beautiful car. I don't think I've ever seen this colour combination before - it looks great!
