Magnifier 1/12 GT40 part 1

[Guest]

Hi all well this is done but with the lighting I feel 10 pics is not enough so will post this in 2 parts, it is a great kit with only a couple of minor flaws, well make that 3

1 on distributor included with kit (but that is easily scratch built)

2 the working steering is useless it only turns about 19 degrees.

3 well I suppose I could include this with 2 the steering is not anchored in any way (so the steering wheel can be pulled up and down which disengage the drive.

Other than that everything fits well. I know it seems silly but one of the details that really impressed me is the individually turned air valves for the wheels.

Ken,
that is a great result.

Someone said the control box spoilt the look of it so I moved it and painted it black

Very nice. Smart thinking to present it in front of the garage like that.

That's really fab.

Agree with Chris, that garage backsets it off .
