I REALLY wanted to do a Tamiya Mazda 787B, but had this $17.00 gem on the shelf, so here it is:
Not overly detailed and plenty of room for scratch building, which I did not endeavor to become entangled with.
Paint and build sequence need to be adhered to, as "lock out" may occur-I'm sure you all know what I mean.
As a note, I was fortunate enough to be trackside at Daytona the first time this car ran on track during the Roar Before the Twenty-Four-the IMSA season's first competitive meeting. I was astounded by the improvement in performance and difference and volume of sound this car had on day two versus day one, plus flying buttresses are cool!
In reference to the kit itself, it was a low intensity build until decaling, as the little buggers wanted to roll under themselves if any of the carrier film was unsupported by paper as they were applied. As a result, the right side of the model will never be seen publicly.
All of the paint was MM enamel with multiple coats of Future/Pledge to seal it up.
