It's been a great fun project.
The kit is a 'recent' re-release although it is the original tooling.
Generally, parts fit is good but there was a large amount of missing details, particularly in the engine bay.

Lots of wiring, plumbing and pipework has been added, as well as scratch making the missing alternator and coil and trimming the seats with real leather.

The end result is a representation of the Badger racing Lola although the actual car has various small differences.
I'm happy with how it turned out though.

Hope you like it...
