Smile Alfa Romeo 156 die-cast modification

This was modified some years ago when I bought the BURAGO Alfa 156.
Stripped original color, repaint in TAMIYA Italian Red, new rims, lowered at suitable height...

Great job!

I'm currently waiting for my metal kit version, going to do something similar, but put on extra decals!

Thumbs up Very nice!

I have that same model sitting in the "to do someday" pile. When I got it I realized it would be a great place to start on a more-detailed replica of a model that isn't done in plastic. Ditching the Burago wheels is the first line of defense!

Nice work.
