Whilst on hols I won a revell ex protar F1 for a really great price (yes the box is really battered but the bits all look good) I've seen one on there with a starting bid of 197 quid I paid no where near that.

Can anyone guess what it is.
Sorry Colin if you check the engines, engines, engines topic I say all the finishes I use (or will have done by the time it's finished)

Hi all more progress, even with coating these old decals with clear I can't tell you how many pieces they break into when applied, very slow progress.

Hi all (sorry Richard ) the fit of the body panels (maybe the age of the kit) is awful for tamiya standards what ive photoed here is the main body part all else is an awful fit, as this kit was a gift I'm doing my best but this will never be up with the best I've built, that's not to say I'm not enjoying the build its just a shame it won't be my best build.[ATTACH]434819[/ATTACH]

She nears completion (I can't get that gap at the nose cone any smaller) age of the kit I guess.
