Holden Midget

If you haven't had a go at this kit then do it. Its a ripper!! Its one of those rare kits that look so real - beautiful detail & nice light mouldings.
I changed the flathead V8 for a Parts Box Grey Six (good kit too) & added a cut down Nasca driver. He is a little overdressed for the period but still looks OK.
Tried to do a McGee fuel injection unit on it... just squint & it will look OK too. Background photo is the "Ekka" for pundits.
Really enjoyed this one. It was a little fiddly but well worth the effort.
Hope its of interest

That looks very cool!! Great job on it. Would really benefit from some light weathering, but still looks killer.
