Completed: Ferrari 275 Spider

I picked up this Revell kit from a model swap meet almost 2 years ago. Unfortunately, I didn't check the kit when I bought it - it was missing the tyres and the windscreen and frame were warped (which you can tell from the pix). And since this kit is OOP, I had to improvise. The tyres are from the Tamiya VW Beetle. I couldn't do too much about the windscreen.
Kit is painted Tamiya Maroon, BMF work on the trim, Alcad Chrome on the bumpers, and very basic engine wiring. I did use some photoetched parts on the engine but you cant tell in the pix.
Rather frustrating kit to build - I started out painting it with Finishers Pure Red, but didn't like and ended with Maroon which suited the car ok. The windscreen frame was very fragile and kept breaking! :mad:
Anyways, here come the pix...
