cmatthewbacon Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Very "classic" (ie, "old") Airfix kit, developed from a slot car mold. Decals from Patto's Place, in a spurious scheme because the orange nose decals nowhere near fit this kit. And I couldn't resist getting a bit arty: It scrubs up nicely for such an old stager. The only real issue is the way the rear wheels tuck under the body shell -- they don't on the real thing, but they have to the way this is engineered. I can't see where the error is -- any lower and the rear part of the floor wouldn't meet the upper body shell, and the car would have a very inaccurate tail high attitude. best, M.
