Tamiya 1/24 Alpine Renault A442B Turbo (* Final Pics *)
Time to share with you another finished project.
This time is the Alpine Renault A442B Turbo, winner of the Le Mans race in 1978. An old Tamiya model with minimum detail (no engine) but that turned out really good looking. I’ve opted for not build the pilot and detail the seat with a set of Studio 27 belts. Comments are welcome.

Very nice. I think the model was designed to be motorised originally (it's a very old kit). Was that a re-release or an original?

We need a vintage racer meet now. This model is fantastic. To bad it's curbside, cars like this are art through and through. Great, superclean build! Looks fast as hell.

Looks fantastic Nuno, great livery, great design, great execution by a great builder and the car won a great race! I'm wondering what that white thing on top of the windscreen is?
