    MGB, Aoshima, 1/24

    and finished!

    quite a nice kit with the usual Aoshima foibles

    always planned on doing this straight after the Lotus 7 i did earlier this year, since they are similar era and type, but it didnt happen lol








    Per Ardua

    We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no ones been

                    Looks just the part for a race car and next to the lotus super 7! Both cracking builds

                      What a great job you've done there. It was a wow moment for me when I saw the completed build. I have a 1:1 Sebring roadster ( not an original I hasten to add)
                      If this was 'Strictly come modelling ' that would be a 10 from me.

                        I forgot to ask, did the front and rear Sebring fill panels come with the kit ?

                          yup

                          aoshima just add an extra sprue or two of bits to turn it into a racer from the standard road going kit......got extras like the panels and seats, steering wheel, roll cage and other bits n bobs

                            Thanks Paul, I think I'm on the prowl for a slight expansion of the stash.
