Testors Lamborghini Silhouette

Hello, guys...

- Kit from Testors
- Wheels from Tamiya´s Countach
- Tires from Italeri Porsche 928
- Photoetcheds and emblems from Mr. Model and Hobby Design

The paint is copper pearl..... made a new gear shift because original was too thick and ugly. I had a problem with the windscreen and our friend denilsonvm from this forum kindly made another one of vacuform. Many thanks to him !!!

Critics and comments are wellcome...

Nice model - love the colour! One of these was my first model, nearly 40 years ago - the pic on the box was a white one, with blue decal stripes up the sides....

Re: Testors Lamborghini Silhouette

Great job on this normally basic kit; you really made it look nice! I built this once when the kit was new, and I still have another still in the box. Your paint choice is perfect and your modeling skills make this model look high end.

Raphael, thanks.....hope soon you will see it live....

James, as far as I researched, the original color is Oro Elios and/or Rame Colorado....pictures not always show real color....I used what I had in stock that was the closest color.
