mr.camaro Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) Just a nice simple build to take the edge off the bigger projects. Great kit imo better than the tamiya kit for 20$ less.

Tom Geiger Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Are the engine wires part of the kit? They look like it in your photo. I will be getting three of this kit... you know why! And I'm really happy Revell imported these in US boxes. Beats having to pay for the Revell of Germany release! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan 191 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Mine won't be done NEARLY as nicely, but your build is gonna sell extra copies of this kit. Very good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.camaro Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 Tom yes the wires are box stock. I would put this in my top 5 nicest out of the box models. Thanks everyone else for the kind words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshaver Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Does anyone know if a Left hand steering wheel is available . I'd like to do a U S version of a vintage Mini ............... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.camaro Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 Ed-This kit offers both columns and us or euro spec badging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarana-X Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I will be getting three of this kit... you know why! "You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!" The kit looks great, but I still have 3 Tamiyas to build, but for other reasons. I have two of the racing cars, and the Monte Carlo rally car.

mr.camaro Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 Made some progress today, got the inner fenders in, finished up the small engine parts, and got the engine glued in. Im hoping with any luck to have this under glass this weekend along with my club community build. all comments and criticisms welcome!

Guest Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Nothing you did, but the kit wires look too big for my tase, if I ever get this kit, and I hope to, I will use my own wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Smith Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Looking great. I like the green color and the combo on the interior. One thing I noticed about the kit is either the valve cover is too small or the head is too big - there shouldn't be that much head showing under the cover. Here is a real engine for comparison: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.camaro Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 Just a small update got most of the chrome put on and painted the radiator support and hood seal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
