Here's one I recently finished up. It's a very simplified Tamiya kit from their motorized model (toy's) days. The kit came out okay. I had a little problem getting the decals to lay over the front fenders smoothly and had to cut a couple slits on the edges which don't look very good now.

It's built out of the box with the exception of the antenna which is from the parts box.

I built one of those a couple of years ago. I also had trouble getting those decals laying over the front fenders too. However you did a better job of it than I did on that kit.

Nice work! Throw some post-race weathering on it and you'll never see those pesky stripe slits ;)

Looks like it's ready to go on the hunt at LeMans! The finish looks nice and smooth great job!

That looks really good. The driver is a nice addition that we don't usually see.

We're gonna need an extra row of tables just to fit all the Porsches this year.

Thanks everybody. I hope we need two extra tables just to hold the Porsches!!

That's a nice clean build, Eric. I had the same decal problems with mine.
