Great job wix

I've just started work on one of these kits myself and hit the "print button" as soon as I saw this!

Good news about the wheels and tyres - I was planning to use Pink Kar AU's all round.

Hi Fate,

I don't know the true origins of the kit but this one was boxed and sold by Revell Germany. It is interesting to note that the sprues have an identity plate on each of them where the words 'Made in England' have been partly obliterated?

What a great chassis wixwac and a nice looking model.

Revell have just released these in the UK presumably leasing the old Matchbox tooling.

I'm just going through some things to put on eBay and found this kit, but having seen the results here I'm pretty loath to let it go to be honest!

Is there any way of getting this thing rolling without having to scratch a chassis? I don't think that the MRRC adjustable would fit inside the sloping rear deck, so any thoughts welcomed!

Also - how to build a Tazio? Do you get a 1/48 figure? He did look a bit lost in there...
