nice progress.
cool wheels, though i'm not sure about the treaded tires.

you are right,there wil be slick's at the final version

Looking good so far. I had a question about this kit, is this just the regular ZG model? And did those wheels come with the kit?

yes the kit is a standard tamiya zg
the wheels come from a tamiya porsche 934 (not in the kit)
the wide fenders are homemade with styreen plate and puty

paint is on with a lot of truble

Nice progress so far. I had a '71 240Z when I was a teenager. Was in really nice condition and I ended up selling it to a friend before I got married. One of those things you look back on years later and regret.
