Its been a good while since Iposted here so.....I finished these within the last 6 months or so. Thought I'd share them with the group here. The Toyota Carolla WRC car was a blast. I am kind of sorry I dirtied it up after looking at all of my in progress pics I took, but at the time I figured this is how they look so I went for it. Comments welcome. Thanks, "Q"

Hasegawa Sauber Mercedes C9-- Dog of a kit, but the end result came out nice.


Tamiya 1/12 Suzuki- Awesome kits! Strictly OOB


Hasegawa 1/24 Toyota Carolla WRC OOB


Fujimi 1/24 Porsche 911 RSR


AMT 1/25 1953 Studebaker Starliner Coupe


Revell 1/25 Sunoco Camaro-


Unkown kit- Hasegawa maybe Used to be a slot car Porsche 901 or 902 (I forget)


Last but not least, Fujimi 1/24 Dome Mugen Honda- another Slot car
Pretty basic underneath. Love the decals though

That's a good six months. I love the motorcycle and the WRC (Even dirty).


Why wippers up on the 911?

Rain Called for them in the instructions... beats me. There were a few other parts left, including a different style of wipers. These looked more stylish so I went with them. "Q"

Rain - good answer. Didn't know if there was a fit problem with them down low or a diorama or something.

Thanks

Nice work Matt!

That really was a good 6 months. I think I like the Camaro the best.

Thanks. I had a ball with that kit. Very, very detailed. Air ducts, vent lines etc. and all of it is included with the kit. I didn't add a thing. The decals were probably the only draw back. The large one for the hood....that is missing... shattered when it hit the water. I oversprayed the remaing decals with Testor Decal fixative before contiuing. Couldn't find a replacement so I went on without it. I went on a buying spree and grabbed a few of the kits from the same era on related subjects. Quite a few mustangs, another Camaro, only in Hot Wheels livery. Now I just need to find time to get to them!! Thanks again, "Q"
