Nice subject - Fujimi kits are good kits to build, will look great.

this one will never be finished



dog got it

Dog would 'Get it' if it was my dog ...erm ex dog.

Another reason I like cats hehe.

Sorry to see that mate ...how about slipping all those parts under a 32 or something and building a wild custom job !

Sorry to see bud.

Bugger what happen to it

Damn mate What a bugger that is

I agree with Dean, stick the chassis and everything under a 32 for a wild job.

Says under the photo mate, Dog got it

Bl@@dy dog, i bet it sleeps outside from now on! You have to find a positive in everything mate, you will end up with a very tricked out hot-rod or even pro touring muscle car, i used a Lamborghini interior in a dodge Daytona, Ferrari v12 in a rod, ideas are limitless, go for it, make the most of this disaster.

Is it worth contacting the manufacturer and explain what happened ...they may send you new body ??

Did not see that dog got to that's so sad to see,I would of kick its butt.

How about a diorama of a smashed-up Ferrari? Looks like it could work, but you'd have to do a little damage to the interior as well i guess? Personally I'm amazed your dog is still alive! Man's best friend lol.

That's no good John. sorry to hear, it was comin along nicely too.
That's how they look when they hit something.

So how many others have lost models to dogs ...there is this one and I think from memory Clucth lost one to his hound ...how many folks have a dog with a plastic diet ??

The dogs have never touched my models, cats are my enemy Fur in paint, knocking things off shelves, chewing on my toes ( ) Man!
Just for the record I do like cats, just as long as they stay away from my models

Sorry about what happened to your build mate, hope you can still do something with it :\

No kit company will send you a body for free... However you can order any part from Tamiya/Fujimi & Aoshima through your local supplier ( NOT your local hobby-shop ) The supplier can order the needed parts.
PS: The Supplier is the guy who get's all the kits, from these manufacturers & then sells them on to Hobby-Shops.
I'm with the other guys... Do something custom with all the usable parts off the 575... 👍👍
Cheers & sorry, Cliffo
