Tamiya kit. I had to make allot of the decals due to yellowing. I also made all the Marlxxx decals. I did not use the UV filter window film provided in the kit because just could not get a clean uniform look to it. I scratchbuit an engine insert so it looks like something is in the hood opening.

great looking build.
A bit clean for a Safari car, but I haven't had the heart to dirty-up one of my models too...
The last pic is really brilliant. Must remember that. Very cool.

Thanks. I took a picture of the completed chassis. Then I took a picture of the finished model. I opened the finished pic then copied it memory. I then brought up the chassis pic in Paint Shop pro and pasted the finished pic over top as a layer and adjusted the opacity of the layer, then I saved the resulting Image. You could use the free graphics program Paint.net to do the same.
