Revell 240z

i mustve forgot to post this here.

yes i saw the anime and yes i wanted one of my own. so i did i used a revell the car should be a small car the aoshima i got was too big for a sports car.due to time constraints its missing a lot of details like the lack of the twin turbo L,euro bumpers, and racing seats. but i decided to build something close to it.
