Smile Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA.

Tamiya's Alfa kit painted TS Italian Red. Engine has been detailed with spark wires, velocity stacks and battery cables. Wheels are by Fujimi and aluminun exhaust were added and directed to the side.

Nice!

I was working an an Alfa Twincam the other day, and that engine looks very good! It reminded of what I had been doing.

And the Exhausts are nice touch!

Dang that looks good!!!
I made one too and it was a painless and fun build. The thing I lacked then was any real modelling skills

Excellent work on a beautiful classic Alfa. You've gotta love those Italians! Great engine detail, the wiring makes a real difference.

Like all your stuff, this one looks great!

Would you mind filling us in on how this kit goes together? I have a copy of this one in my "to do" pile, and I'd really appreciate any input you might have.

They are machined aluminum stacks made by Sakatsu. They make several different diameters and lentghs, you can get them at Hapico. com or Hobby Link.

Best I can remember this one went together very smoothly, unlike the A110. Front and rear windows go on from the outside, so check fitting issues before, during and after painting.
