So unique that I am almost afraid to go forward with it!
As an update, I have dissassembled the model. Using a lot of acetone and TLC I have managed to get all the parts to separate without damage. I was concenred that with so much "glass" there was bound to be some fogging or glue over spill, but who ever put the model together did a really good job. I will post pics soon.
I have also been studying pictures of the actual car and it seems that the kit has incorrect wheels. Does anyone know where I can find some 1/20 scale knock off rims? I don't think I'll find the exact style, but the rims on the kit are way off so anything would be an improvement. Here is a picture of what I am looking for:
Also, there is no engine detail. I don't know if I'll be able to find another 1/20 scale Lamborghini to cannibalize it from, so I might just leave it as a curbside, even though everything on the kit can be opened.
Finally, for all the Marzal fans out there, here is the sight that I'm using for reference pics:

Stay tuned for more!
