    For a minute I thought it looked like the new 1/12 Italeri 1923 Fiat Mestophole racing car (on my list).

    Here is what I am up to. This is the old Lindberg Stutz. I am adding the body from the Mercedes Benz Lindberg kit. Nothing special just some fun. Here is what I started from.

    OK, but where did the Duval type windshield come from?

    Great question Al. It is from a 1/24 ford roadster. I did a bit of trimming and cutting.

    Lookin' good so far, Steve...I'll bet it's gonna have workin' headlights, too. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Now what can I say, the car didn't have headlights. What's a modeler to do?
    I have posted the finished model at Headlines. For such a simple model I sure had some fun. I think there are under 30 pieces to this kit.
    Thanks Craig.

    Steve:
    I love that shade of blue! What is it?
    Beautiful car, looks like the time period. You expect to see one of the Vanderbilts, clad in duster and goggles, narrowly missing a peasant whilst doing 20 MPH in a great cloud of dust!
    "Get a horse!"

    Hi Bernie. The color is Tamiya TS23 light blue rattle can. When I saw it in the hobby shop I knew it was just the color I wanted. Ford has almost this color on some of there Mustangs and does Steve want one?... I would say yes.
    Thanks for your nice comments Bernie. I have posted more pics on the Headline section of this forum.
