I said, screw it. I don't wanna mess with what works. So, I left it as it was at the local contest. Thanks for looking, nice to see I finally got it (something) done, eh? For me it is.

Comments welcome, criticisms encouraged.

Re: Complete: Lotus 7... thousand.

looks great. Pics are dark, I assume they do the model no justice. But its still an obviously sick build!

Re: Complete: Lotus 7... thousand.

Amazing! Is it called an L7000? The detail in the engine bay is superb. Id love to see pics with the hood on. Only critique I have is putting an Optima decal on the Battery or whatever is on the top of the Battery. Other than that, Sweet build!

Incredible
Great choice for the wheel color.
I'm drooling over your F20C detailing.
How's the battery held down?
Any dashboard and underbody pics?

Great from inception and well executed!
Gotta show my S2k buddies this one!

Re: Complete: Lotus 7... thousand.

(Smacks forehad)

Tie downs, I forgot all about them, and the decal, whoops. Two things I meant to do. I better start making a list and actually complete this thing. Expect completed thread 2 soon.

The pics are dark because I just took them and it's getting dark. The pictures do the car a service, the paint is awful and the darkness and strong sunlight helps hide it. And it also makes the rear wheel look cool in the second pic.

Re: Complete: Lotus 7... thousand.

Fast car + big brakes = flying Optima. That's one way to take out the competition.....LOL

Looking real good, though!

I love the look of it! I'm aware of the F20C transplant, and I know there is a progress thread around, but which kit is this??
