    Obviously I did it the easy way and made a replica of the model car.

    Is the green stripe on the side of the front clip right on your car or on the model?

    In this case I would say it is more correct on the car & it is the model which is actually wrong!
    Just don't mention the chin spoiler!

    Sometimes the green stripe on the front panel is parallel to the swage line, rather than the door bottom/sill.
    Both ways are correct, depending on which works late Alitalia car and on what event. Usually '76 for the swage line, I think?

    Jim. You really should not have poked your head above the parapet.
    I feel this commentary could run and run.
    Lets just say your car is fabulous.

    Black V Chrome door handles. Surprised Chris did not point that out!

    The model now has black wheel nuts and I've a small pot of chrome coloured paint on order and it will soon have chrome door handles as well. I always thought I'd end up in a shed modifying a car. I just didn't realise it would happen this way round.

    You'll need to make a 1:18 black bib spoiler too Jim.
