Nearly finished, some detail work to to figure out, but overall coming along nicely. I first saw this model prototype in 2020 at Amelia Island; the model company was supposed to release it that year, but it never came to be. I found the cottage model company in Europe and secured an unfinished kit to fulfill my dream model car: decals are first rate but very time consuming to cut out and apply.

Windows were cut from sheet acetate, various thicknesses were tried with bending the windshield with a heat gun [fail] eventually used thin gauge and just glued the windshield into the body flanges and covered with black vinyl edging. Can't seem to post more than one large image, sorry. File Attachment(s): Eagle attached the following image(s):
