Re: Tamiya 1/24 Alpine Renault A442B Turbo #2 24H LeMans

Beautifull and clean model.
This is little bit a forgotten Tamiya kit, but a really nice one.
You made it like a winning contest model!

Right now I'm working on the same kit, but with the 1978 nr. 4 Calberson decals.
But that was a completely different car, I found out (too late).
Now I'm reworking the body.
The louvres on the front fenders have to go, and this car has 5 naca ducts on top....

Gorgeous! Even if it's only 60 parts, to make it that nice, it really was a quick build!
