Finally finished F&F Supra!! Many Pics!

Here are pics of the recently completed supra. It has been quite a project and im very happy to have finally finished it. I made so many mistakes when making the car that it isnt even funny. this is the first time i tried to do anything but box stock. but in the process i have become a much much better modeler (at least i think so). it has seen so many paint jobs that i never want to see orange paint again. It has consumed parts from two supra kits to finish (since i ruined the suspension the first time i tried to lower it... oops) and after all that, im still missing the driver's side mirror. I will call and order the parts if they are still available from tamiya. (so actually its only 99% done... close enough for now). i also broke the left A pillar literally about 7 times!!

details on what went into this kit:
bomex body kit with matching hood
F&F decals (Oh, what a bitch they were to make!!!)
scratch built roll cage (no NOS or Amps... sorry)
huge tach and indicator lights
Belagio rims (sorry dont have tools to scratch build accurate rims)
lowered suspension
SAS wing
tinted back windows
Studio 27 Sparco seats with S27 seat belts (not accurate i know)
7 months of on and off modeling

all and all im happy with it. i thought i was crazy when i started building it. maybe i am, but i finished it and im satisfied. if i had to do it again, which i cant afford to do right now, i bet i could do a much better job. Hope you like it. Your comments are always welcome and appreciated. thanks
