discussion Toyota supra A70

[kacitgirl]

Well this is the kit which the body shell was destroyed. Having been sent a replacement body but no bumper I managed to find a bumper in the spares box for a Nissan which I've had to cut,sand,file etc but it seems to fit fairly well

Great job on the bumper integration kaci , looks totally original . Love these model of supra , a big heavy powerful rear drive coupe , used to enjoy tuning them to the max and sliding them around on Gran Turismo back in the day

Never owned one but I've driven a friend's. Frightened the living daylights out of him

Coming together well Kaci. Excellent recovery on the front bumper.

 

[kacitgirl]

yeah bumper is from a nissan think a 180 sx or silvia doesn't fit perfectly but better than i thought it would

 

[kacitgirl]

Chassis fully completed

Blimey. You churn these out quicker than my mini-MiGs!
Even with those nightmarish transfers!

Not that that's a problem with this one, which is turning out great
As usual!

thanks some decals are more tricky than others

thanks some decals are more tricky than others

Which I run screaming into the next room from!
(I'm looking at a set of transfers for a min iMiG trainer, which are pseudo-wood panelling for the wings and part of the fuselage and thinking, do I really want to put myself through that?)

 

[Stefee]

Very nice so far. Is the fluting on the rear differential casing an air flow cooling aid a la 60s and 70s Alfas?

 

[kacitgirl]

yes used for extra cooling think skylines etc have a similar thing

Loving that - really good!
