All done, won't build another, basic chassis and collapsing decals, plus my shaky painting of the front and rear bumpers! Scattered around the remains of the collapsing decals. Had to lower the front end as when fitting the body to the finished chassis the front end was higher than the back!

So?

      What I see is a model of a car I have yet to get my hands on. And well done, to my old eyes, I like the lowered front stance.  T.B.

I like it Pat, though I'm not familiar with that car.  Those kit wheels look really nice.  Pretty cool graphics as well.

Thanks,

John

Thanks guys. I bought it for the decals, but as they were old, 1986.

But they didn't like going around corners! So two major decals on each side collapsed!

Pat-at the end of the day, I would have never known you had decal issuses had you not posted the 'before' pics-I think we've all battled frustrating decals but you've been successful in overcoming the problems.  All in all, good looking race car.

Cheers Bob. Yes we just have to re-group, look at what we can use, and as my late father, a career RAF Flight Sergeant used to say, 'whatever you come across in life buckle down and get on with it'! There was no pansieng about with supposed stress or mental health issues (today's major excuse' Just Get On With IT!

Thanks keavdog! I've just got the email, plus the website is dead slow at present. I try to log in, get the opening page then it logs out in 5 seconds flat! 

I'll send them a message.
