Thanks for showing us this Kit,put nicely together and the paint looks great.Looks like a lot of Xtra detailing can be done on this Kit,do you have a pic of inside (cockpit,Gauges and so on) that would great to see.As the others say the rear tyres are totally out of size,dont know what went wrong there or is it that the wheel arches are not correct,hard to say looking at the pics.

Nice work, Its good to see someone build this kit. I was disapointed when Scale Motorsports decided not to do a super detail kit for it, they said too many inaccurates.
Overall, fantastic build!!!

Sweetooth - how much of the detail have you added? I've not seen the kit in person so I don't have a feel for what was included vs what you have put in.

This is basically built OOB with two minor modifications
1.)on the disc brakes, i sanded it since the groove were too deep
2.)The steel cable that is connected to the hood pins, i used thin wires in replacement to the kit provided cable.

Thanks! no problem.

Raceman,
I actually forgot to create a thread in this forum for the WIP of this kit as im too busy building it

Just received mine this week. Don't know about referring people to sites, but I got mine for $185 USD inc. shipping. I wonder if tires from another kit (say Tamiya) might be better? Lola GT?
