Rod -There will be more pics coming. I didn't take any pics so far. It's a dog of a kit, I regret even opening it. Getting a good result is going to be hard!

Rod -I have the tamiya 300SL in the stash, should have done that one instead. I have the monogram 300SLR to, I haven't looked in the box to see what is like yet.

Rod -I just had a quick look at the monogram #722 car. It's basically the same kit as the revell but with a different (open top) body. Revell were a bit to ambitious with their gullwing doors, the fit is horrendous. I've had to glue them shut.

Rod -Body and engine cover have been gently heated and bent straight in hot water. Cover doesn't close properly, hits on intake manifold. Grrr!!

Rod -Very slow progress on this one. Clear coat done, not polished yet. I was going to use hobby design wire wheels. After stripping the plating off the kit wheels and painting, I think I'll stick with those.

Rod -30+ year old seat decals didn't want to play nice. I had to butcher the intake manifold to get the engine cover to close.
