Not an easy built as the quality of molding was really bad and lots of cleaning up to do.

Absolutely gorgious! I love the paint work, especially the different look in textures (gas tank, roof cover, etc...). Did you hand polish the paint? If you did, it must of been tricky not to avoid damage over the loovered vents.

Great work!

Cheers,

Rick

Nice work on this classic old kit!

I love it!
I'm ever in search of a 1/24 heller, before or after..

Wonderful job!! :drool:

What did you use for the metal radiator housing? It looks VERY realistic.

WOW, that paint job is absolutely amazing.

This is so cool! What paint/colour did you use?

@lechatnoir - your sig is the best I have seen in a long time! :lol:
It bodes well for a prosperous law career. Send me your card when you graduate ;)

rickkerzipper,
This car was hand polishes with different grit of polish thus giving it the looks.

Robex,
Sometimes it is a good change to built some classics. I fine it relaxing in a different point of view.

Gionic,
Yeah! Feels a little better then that when you had finally completed it and place it on a nice frame. I remembered when I had completed it and had it in the custom made frame. I just sat there for alomost an hour with my cigar and a glass of wine staring at it in different light angle.

lechatnoir82 & ales,
Thanks man! I can't really remember but I think it was Mr Hobby British Racing Green.

Thanks once again for viewing and comments:smokin:
