Very cool, how did you end up doing the work on the front fender? I didn't think you could get dents and sharp creases like that with heat.

Looking really good! This is the treatment I want to do on my 1/2th version.

If I recall, the spare tyres had a thin metal tube frame but I'm damned if I can find a good photo now! Will have another look for it.

Are you going to bend the front chrome bumper too?

You sure made the interior very realistic and convincing. Looking forward to seeing this one finished.

Marcel,

I meant to add that I ordered a magazine from Japan a long while back just because it had some studio shots of this very car. Do you want the scans?:biggrin:

This is absolutely spectacular. Beautiful work on the damage and weathering. I also want to know how you did that fender damage.

I have this same kit and would REALLY appreciate some photos of how you replicated the damaged areas.

It looks fantastic!:thumbsup:
