Audi sport quattro

Hello!It is one more great rally car Audi In my collection.
In the end of 80 years I had a videocassette with a film about sports cars.There there were different interesting moments of a car racing.
I most of all liked the moment when Lancia 037 jumps in running up spectators.And short not the beautiful white-yellow car passes turns of mountain road in drift, leaving wide black traces on asphalt.Then I had a Czechoslovak magazine with photos and the technical story about this car.Sport Quattro I liked to be pleasant even more.


I have bought this set on eBay.It is a copy of a set from Reji.At that time it was the unique variant of model of this car.At the moment I would buy Ken's set.
Quality of the complete set on very average level:

Many details are made of white metal.
I have begun work with body correction.


I have cleaned very big thickness:


Has started to correct a curve back part.


For manufacturing of this complete set used model Tamiya.Therefore the roof is made very short.And a windshield inclination too not the correct.
I have pasted a slice for reception necessary roofs are long.



My friend has made to me one body of our set.And I have replaced a back cover.

The forward grid was not correct.I cut out it from a body and have altered.

I have tried on the bottom part with wheels.






While I like result. In the course of assemblage still there will be difficult moments.
Thanks you.
