What a way to start a new year than with something cute, haha.
The goal is to take the Revell early version Smart for two and turn it into a Brabus late version Smart for two. Color will be Tamiya blue/silver.
The kit came in the mail today, so I wasted no time and got right to it.

Can't complain too much about a snap-together kit, ooowwww so colorful!

Here's a dry fit of the body with wheels from the Revell DC2. Somehow, these wheels are the exact same wheels that the Smart car of America offer as an upgrade option to their customers.

Here is the wheel on the real car.

Smart Car of America? You must be in Canadaland. We don't get those cute little cars here in the US:( Keep up the awsome progress!

great idea!
This is going to be promising.
Just a question, how far will you go?
Will this mean a rework of the optics of this car to the newer model?
Also, you might want to spray some flat into the interior, it looks quite glossy, just a little sidenote.
