I know I've got pictures of each version but some predate digital photography so it might take a while to compile the full set (and that might show up a version I've forgotten about). Started the build in 1988 and first hit the road in 1991.

Are we doing engine bays too Phil??

Standard 2.0 Beta Twink
Standard 2.0 Beta VX Twink
Uprated 2.0 Beta VX Twink

[Lancialulu]

Oh that is nice!

[ducatiman]

Looking good.....................

[LM mic]

Very nicely built Indeed :p

Which kit did you give to the modeler builder as a base ?
Arena , Starter , Tron ??

Am happy because from My model years work I still have silicon molds and lot of parts for a LWB Strat !!!!!:rolleyes::o

If eventually one day or another you are "tired" to chase cheap kits I can help you in doing for you, your proper tools ( molds etc ) and cast them at home !!!!!

[Bernard]

The Base model was Arena (Resin) and the decals Maurizio had printed from good quality photo's
10850

with today's electronic camera's you can really tell a good model maker by zooming in !

[Bernard]

These are NOT in my collection !!

[LM mic]

...........

unfortunately it is a model !

When we where building models years ago and going to some model show we effectivly found some ....." piece of soap" like this one ( thta(s the world we found to name those magnificient "things ";)

RE; decals ... yes this is the way I did alot of my Le mans models because there was no sufficient people for a serie printing but we where doing specific drawing at scale to have a very neat 1/43 detailed logo !!!:rolleyes:

[Bernard]

Stunning - it's even right hand drive!

[Bernard]

Michel......... you are NUTS !!!!!........... LOL.... if I tried that I'm sure it would be a disaster........ I will paint the wheel nuts white on the 1:1 model !!!!! (this would be easier !)

Guy.... good spot !!.... yes he even made it right hand drive and put the air vents close together !... he took several detail photo's of the car both inside and outside
