Here's a Toyota Corolla FX-16 I built a few years ago.

This is Tamiya's Corolla hatch snap kit. This one is built similar to one a guy drove while I was going to college. Mine differs somewhat in that I kept the right hand dash and the wheels are a little different.
The color is Testors Silver with a Clear Pearl overcoat. The interior is all black and the wheels and tires are yet another set of Aoshima items. Somewhere along the line I lost the driver's side headlight lens - anyone got a spare? Not a big deal though. Hope you enjoy the pics!

Bob... A freind of mine has that kit.. but he's customizing the front end and using big fog lamps instead of headlamps. However... Contrary they've been paint black with clearcoat, and a blue drop in the middle for a bulb. Oh yeah you said you kept it RHD(right hand drive) but you claim you lost the drivers side lamp, i think you might mean the passenger lamp if its RHD.

Shame about the light.
Rest of the kit looks good.
Nice to see a simple clean build.
