Hey guys.

This 355 was initally sprayed yellow. (This is about 5 years old)
Then somehow it become white? Anyway it will be stripped and resprayed.
And I decided to make it a racing version..

Made the front splitter out of styrene. Not sure if im happy with the side parts. Perhaps they are too big/long?

Also made a hood duct. I suppose its for a front mounted oil cooler or something, seeing as the engines in the rear.

Grey wheel is a resin copy of the rears. I had only two rims - no idea what or where they came from. Pretty wide rubber on the rears :)

Slightly modified the lower portion of the rear bar. Wing will have the supports closer together.

The louvres on the engine cover are slowly been cut open.

Next i'll have to strip the body then work getting the side ducts looking smooth.
