Totally agree with Joel. The gray of the background make the red and wood of the car really pop even more.

A great build Ken. The diorama sets the car off perfectly. Detailed to perfection.

Man, my spares drawer is full of a bunch of unbuilt plastic. If I was good enough to build something like that it would be front and center on my shelf - I was in awe of your skills before but can't even imagine what you'd consider worth displaying if that's a 'spares drawer' model.

A Fantastic restoration of a classic, Ken!
I really hope you meant to say, display case not spares drawer as it would be a shame to hide this one away
