Piping was done utilizing a thin gauged wire from Radio Shack. The original seat had these molded in but I knew it would be a paint trying to detail them so I sanded them off and used this alternative. The wire was crazy glued in sections.

Beautiful job, Cruz! I have a question: how did you do the piping on the seats?

Nothing ever fits……..and when it does, its the wrong scale.

The kit is 1/25 scale, manufacturer is Hasegawa. Engine is resin by Historic Racing Miniatures. The wheels and tires are also from Hasegawa specifically made for this kit. I also used the 250TR detail up P/E set from KA-Models for the various P/E items around the kit. Paint is Tamiya Pure White, no clear coat.
