Tamiya 1/24 Zakspeed Capri

It's time to crank into another car after spending 8 months working on a massive 1/48 Avro Lancaster.

Kitset is another Hobbylink Japan kitset, quick shipping as always!
Kitset: http://www.hlj.com/product/TAM24329/Aut

Will be doing a box stock build of this iconic machine.












Progress shots coming right up!

Re: Tamiya 1/24 Zakspeed Capri

Cheers everyone and apologies for the lack of progress. This one is about to get kicked up a gear and finished soon. Dedicating a whole week to it so game on!
Started a little progress on the interior last night. It's going to receive a little bit of wiring but not much. The inside is so so bare I thought it needed 'something'!



First step on the wheels:





More progress on the way soon!

Re: Tamiya 1/24 Zakspeed Capri

Look forward to watching your progress. I'm about to get stuck back into my Zakspeed capri (black Wurth car) that has been shelved for the past 18 months. Will put up progress on that shortly.

Re: Tamiya 1/24 Zakspeed Capri

More progress on the Capri finally. Chassis has been finished up and the body is ready for decals. It looks quite nice in plain white although it's not a true Zakspeed without the Wurth stickering.

Hopefully tonight I will get stuck into the decals and have some colour on it!

There's always Klaus Ludwig's Jagermeister Capri.
