This Monogram 1/24 scale die-cast MG-TC came from Scott, who replaced parts from the kit with photo-etched metal (PE) wheels and a steering wheel kit from SE Finecast. Scott noticed that “visually, the MG-TC is all wheels and a dashboard,” so he built a dash from 1/16-inch-thick maple, styrene, PE rings, and wire. He added snap heads to the top cover and MG logo decals on the front and back. Scott painted with two colors: Splash Racing Yellow and Semigloss Black and finished it with Splash 2K clear. “I never mastered painting faux wood, so I had no choice but to build the dash from real wood,” Scott said.
