Greetings,

Here is the progress I've made so far with Jim Clark's final Grand Prix winner. I've got most of a new set of Indycals' terrific decals placed on it. They look great and I hope I did them justice! The body is painted Tamiya TS-43 Racing Green and TS-16 Yellow for the stripe.

So far this kit has gone together without any issues, I hope you enjoy looking at it and would love to hear any ways to make this build better, thank you!

My 1/24 car is still awaiting its stripe. I'm so bad at painting stripes. Your looks great. Patrick

I should've pointed that out! Thank you for the kind words!!!
