Hi,
since years the Renault Alpine A110 from Tamiya is available. Some time ago they offered the Monte Carlo-version of the kit. It is a nice little racer, but these days the wide body transkit for the Tamiya kit from
www.scaleproduction.de will be available. The appearence of the Alpine changes dramatically, it looks much more powerful now.
Here are some pics:
These is the contents of the transkit
coming with resin parts (new wide body, 2 bumpers for 2 versions, wheel-inserts), alu rings for the wheels and fire extinguisher, rubber tires, etched seatbelt hardware and fabric seatbelts, hood fasteners, alu velocity stacks, decals for 2 versions, etc.
The car can be build in 2 ways (fotos from a friend, who started both kits) :
the yellow ´75 Tour de Corse version with the smaller bumber
and the ´74 Tour de Corse version with the huge bumber
... the unpainted body (with fine crisp details)
... the alu velocity stacks:
... the unpainted wheel
It is hard to decide: yellow, blue or both??
