Sweet build, did you show how you colored or should I say dis-colored the exhaust in your build? That is a great touch....

I have just done a short write up in my workbench, of how I did the exhaust discolouration.

This kit also comes supplied with a full width windscreen frame and windscreen, so with a bit of scratch building for some bumpers, could quite easily be made as a road version.

Thanks.

Get one.

Goes together well with a good fit. Also very little would be needed to create a road version if you wanted to go that way.

Now I want to do mine but I'm thinking I'll have to change the body color now. ;-) The question is do I go with the classic blue, red or a different color all together? Maybe a flat black racer? Humm.... 8-)

A different colour altogether. Make it your own :grin:
