Yes Edo working on the body now...it's a mess.
minimum of 4 layers of paint on it so it will take some time and work :)

Good second Christmas day everyone :)

Made a new wing last night (well i tried :) )
Got some black plastics i got from work, cut it out in the countach wing shape and heated it up slowly with a torch. The shape looks alright to me but it looks very rough through the heating and bending of the plastics.
Some sanding ahead of me i think.... :whistle:

Good afternoon,

Finished the car today! The decals are second hand, peeled of from the former body and put up again. So not all are very sticky and some didn't survive :cry: (like the side ones and number plates). That's a thing for the future...
I could have order from e-bay a genuine set but starting price was 100 euro :n:

Excellent work :y:

But seeing how much space the battery connector takes up makes me realise how tiny these things are! :blink:

Really sweet restoration. Even the reused decals looks fine from here :y:

:woohoo:
It looks like a die cast :y:
I love it.
I wanted to buy a new version GT01 but I think that an original is largely nicer
