Re: 1965 Ferrari 275 GTB

Turns out this resin actually is quite nice to work with; not as brittle as it first seemed. It is relatively hard, but it takes scribing well.
I had to remove a good amount of material from the insides of the right window area to get the windows the fit properly.

All the panel lines, louvers and trim were scribed in. The little fissures were sanded out with no need for filler. I also drilled holes for the wipers and the filler caps.
One of the caps is missing from the kit parts, but I have an extra from the TR250 I just finished that will fit perfectly.

The B pillar was so thin on the left side that the louvers became open when I cleaned them up. I put a piece of thin Tamiya tape on the inside to close them.
