Well its finally finished and now on display in its Model Space display case.

I've really enjoyed this build, you'll see how spectacular this looks in the pictures, I would highly recommend this model to anyone.

Some of the pictures you'll notice the plastic wheel arch trims aren't quite fitted correctly, this has now been rectified, they just need a little push Cool

Its also been waxed using Tamiya Modelling Wax

A gorgeous model and a lovely result.
I've peeped at this as a full kit several times.

Hopefully no offence, but I'm not struck on the display case...

Brilliant work though.

Very nice end result Dave.

Its one that i was very keen on but with so many different models and an ever dwindling pay packet had to pass this one over.

Very nice seeing it go together though.
Happy Modelling

Really nice work there, Dave. Looks like the real thing. Your build will definitely be a great reference for my own when I get started. Just collecting at the moment.

Never been really interested in cars but even I can see that this is something specialDrool
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day will cease to be
Greet the last light of the library...We were here!
