You did a superb job on this one. I especially appreciate the photo etching you have created...inspires me to think about doing some as well.I still don't understand how this "CAR" kit could be associated with "Bosica". I have built a few and it's an awful kit. You have created pure magic.

I currently have 14 Rosso models in my collection, none quite so nice as this 375MM and must say, by my standards, I consider Chan to be among the finest builders I know of, outstanding build!

And now that I have had time to study all of the photos I can say this is one of your best efforts. I can see you have done your homework too...hitting on all of the important details that are missing both in the CAR and Bosica kits. If I wasn't a starving builder I would buy this without a blink!

I have also spent some time looking at your other projects...keep up the wonderful work and show up here more often ;)

I think by most peoples standards he IS the of the best. And keep in mind he has no support staff. I know how difficult that is now that I am a solo act.

For those of you who missed it, this model was featured on my homepage today. It sold very quickly and headed for New York. Congratulations Chan, magnificent effort!

I’m speechless of what you have created there.

In my younger days I had the opportunity to built this Bosica kit.
I know this kit was a nightmare, but you managed to built a collectors dream model!

I also consider you one of the best builders there is.
