Latest build - Leader Cards Offy Midget. I found a color photo from the 1950s verifying the fact that this midget was marked "Leader Cards" instead of "Leader Card". Airbrushed with Tamiya Pure White. Frame and roll bar were airbrushed with Tamiya Racing Blue. Decals, three gauge dash (NEW), instrument decals (NEW), and rear brake drums were from Scale Auto Details. Typical scratch built details. I liked the different tire deflectors on the rear hairpins. Made a "W" for the front nerf bar (Wilke was the owner). Attachments:

Looks very good! Some day I'll give one of these Midgets a try.

Very nice. I'm amazed that you could modify the front bumper. I can barely get the fiddly little rascal to stay together.

Try scratchbuilding a nerf bar for these kits out of brass wire. About went blind on this Parnelli project I did a year ago. Turned out good, but man! I should get one of these resistance soldering outfits. Good build, by the way.
