Hello all, i'm back after about two months, after i last completed the FC3S.
Here's the 1984 Suzuki Alto twincam(CA71V).
i picked up the kit in HongKong in an old tattered box. there was a sticker on the side which said "DISCONTINUED" and this kei-car seems like a pretty rare build around here. it's decal sheet dates 1987. the only problem was that the windows had marks all over, possibly because it is so old. Now about the car, i wanted to go for a look where the alto's owner either works for, or is a boss of a auto shop in japan who uses his personal daily drive(the alto) to deliver goods for the shop.
mods for this build:
modified the body a little bit, cut open the front.
tow hooks
intercooler
scratch built exhaust
racing steering wheel
driver sseat changed
magazines
extra parts in the boot
decals
now for photos.

undercarriage. the stick from the muffler to the catalyser(is that right?) is a metal rod on it's own.

shiny muffler.

Hi,
is the intercooler in the back part of the engine or a spare part like the exhaust?
