Nice! 👍👍
I was just looking for some early Indy type car model kits. This one looks like a must have.
Trouble is, one is not enough.... 😄
Nice build, and your scene is so, so cool.

Thanks guys. We have Silverstone Race Circuit just 5 miles from here, where they have a number of Classic car meets including racing throughout the year. It's very popular with hundreds of entries and thousands of spectators!

Another excellent build there Pat! And the engine compartment looks suitably realistic for such a (presumably) simple kit. This was a Merit kit originally?
Great job!

Thanks jb, yes I think it was a Merit kit, and now produced by Mister Craft Hobby, so folks have told me on other sites.

Cheers Bob. It doesn't have too many parts so I gave it three coats of auto grey primer, two coats of flat white and three coats of Tamiya Bright Red, and didn't need any clear gloss coat!

Very nicely done model of an unique subject! I can't remember when was the last time I saw one of these built. Your version seems to be very nicely done also. Thanks for posting!

That era body design I call CLASSIC! Such a sweet job and a model company I haven't heard of before. Very nice indeed!
