Well right out of the box the body was a mess. It had major gouges going down the fenders. I used bondo to fill the holes, then sanded it smooth, primed and painted. Not too many parts in this kit were able to go onto the model out of the box. Everything has to be sanded down first. The windshield had knotches to go into the body but they weren't aligned to the holes in the body. I had to cut them off and hold the windshield in place until the glue dried. The wheels are not right either. The front and the back of the wheels are too big for the tire, so when one puts them together, the tire has major play back and forth. I wouldn't recommend this kit for anyone to buy. Pretty sad quality.

THANKS to everyone for all the nice comments. It was worth the pain and suffering I went through

Looks very sharp.
The interior compliments the green very well.
