That's awesome, I wish this kit would come back at a normal price. Probably one of my favorite bodies of all time.

As a Tifosi, I'm not supposed to like this car, but damned if this isn't a great looking model.

Great job, but what's up with the CA license plate?

Thanks for the comments. This kit was more than I bargained for as far as having to upgrade the kit, but it really came out well.

As far as the license plate goes, this car and the other team car (car #6) ran with the same identical plate on both cars in the 1964 LeMans race.
