Some of you guys have seen this over on the Facebooks, but it's finally done. *This is a really nice kit that goes together well. *The only real challenge were the windows, but luckily, there were 2 sets in the kit. *I did some sublet track weathering and added a lot of PE bolts and rivets to match the 1:1 car.

Here's the interior before the body was glued down.

Thanks. The silver is actually from the decal sheet with the kit. I painted the body white first then masked that for the black. Then the silver decals were applied followed by part urethane clear.

Looks awesome, Jay. Are the wheels machined or are they resin painted with alclad?

They are the kit rims Eric. I spent some time cleaning out the spokes and then sprayed them gloss black to prep for the Alclad chrome. Then I just hit them with a black wash for depth.
