I ordered this George Turner Models Cro-Sal Cheetah Roadster kit before Xmas and it was delivered last week. I have always wanted to make the Cheetah Roadster and this looks like a excellent kit. There are many small parts and the roll bar, and door handles are white metal and it also has the decal sheet. I have some SCC insert wheels 15x10 (front) and 15x12 (rear) with the 5 spoke inserts for it which should look great on the car.

Here it is with the body painted. I wanted a color blue that was close to the original but metallic to just do something different. I decided to use Tamiya Deep Metallic Blue (TS-53). The pictures really don't show the true color of this but its like a dark candy blue. I think once the white stripes and roundels with the red edging go on its really going to pop.

I have made a little more progress, got the engine, wheel inserts and dash detail painted along with many other small parts. Received the 15x12 rear wheels/tires along with other parts from SCC today, I hope to get the decals on it tomorrow along with the motor/drive shaft and guide and getting the exhausts painted.
