Sweet, very sweet.

I always found this an odd Group C car, with those rear wheel covers.

Impressive as always 935k3

Love the detail around the windscreen, are those fittings in the kit or did you add them? Are the decals aftermarket, or is this a limited edition of the 89C?

In those pictures you could believe you were looking at the real thing. To me, that is the mark of a job will done!

Thanks all,the fittings around the windscreen are molded with the windscreen. I guess Tamiya didn't make thisk kit very long, I bought it when it first came out.
