Posted - 05/17/2016 : 09:59:23 Stunning build.I have the MFH 1/12 visible engine kit of the GTO.It is a bit of a challenge to get the pistons to move in the cylinders.I love the weathering effect you did on the engine.Can I ask how you did it?
I have the full GTO kit too and I plan to display the visible engine next to the kit.I will be studying your build for tips.

Fred told me that if you use the windshield from Hiro you have a cut in the center....and it s too tick but it s only my opinion.. Marc
Yes, but it is very close to the real thing. "to each his own" ;)
Still a splendid build of a superbly executed kit by Mr. HIRO. |

That's what I figured, but he weathered the chassis so nicely I thought we would be in for a treat.
Personally I like the contrast...it is a nice and clean presentation. The windshield is missing the frame the way HIRO designed it, which is a difficult installation but looks more realistic in my opinion ;) |

Posted - 07/03/2015 : 08:33:50 This is how you would see the cars prepared/restored for Pebble Beach, not prior to a race of course. It is built to customer preference, some guys prefer the cleaner look, this particular customer wanted the car finished in this way. |

Posted - 07/03/2015 : 08:14:21 Very good, although the paint/tires/wire wheels look way cleaner than any NART car I have ever seen pictures of!!! NART cars always looked ratty unless they were prepared directly from the factory. This one had had a few NART prepared races before Lemans. |

May I ask where you got the helmut and gloves from?
Fred informed me this was modified from a helmet he had. He made a mould and offered to send one to you free. Send me your address at this email and I will give to Fred. miniwerks@gmail.com
