    Subaru Impreza Rally Car

    Set up as a National Rally contender taking into consideration it's age, but still using the factory decals.

    The front end paintwork had to be replaced 3 times due to constant heavy orange-peel and therefore cleaning off and re-applying. In the final application, automotive primer was used to solve the problem. The rest of the body was unaffected and of high gloss finish throughout!
    The kit being quite old but the Airfix decal sheet and the lay-up onto the body were first class in their finish!

        That's a great finish Patrick, its certainly a ground hugger on the front end.
