I started this one a while ago and decided to get it back out last night as I wan't to finish it.

The body is from comp resins and I have cut the front off it and filled the door gap'smthe front and rear wheels are from comp's and the rear resin tyre's are from a friend in the states as they a bigger and the right size then the one's that come with the 1/16 kits the only thin I had to do was prep and paint them

I made up my own brake lines out of aluminium,and I have made up a support bracket for the topolino grille the fuel cell isalso from comp resins and tie's in well with the bracket.

Cheers Tony.

Joe I got back into this last night,the front 12 spokes are from comp's but to fit the kit trye's over them you need to sand them down with a flat file to get them spot on.
