Wow, I have seen some wild things done with Reynard kits but this takes the cake! It is amazing how much like the PC23 it does look like. I can see a lot of smoothing, filling, building up, etc. Really impressive.

The engine cover wasn't too hard. You have to cut off the fin and the roll over bar. I used Miliput to re-shape the top of the cover and sanded it to shape. Then I noticed that there was a head rest built in underneath where the rollover bar was. I made it from Miliput too. After sanding I positioned the rollover bar back in place, but just a bit ahead of it's original position. the last thing was to add back on the fin and re-shape it a little too. Thanks to Cal Salee, I got the correct Tobacco decals for it to add to Indycals sheet. A fun build. Thanks, H.W.

This build has made doing this car within reach of many of us, thanks Howard for sharing a very inspirational project with us.

This same kit can also be used for the 1993 winner with just a few changes. I'm looking for one now to use later. H.W.

Really nice job, Howard. This is an iconic car purpose built to overpower the rest of the field which it did. Supposed to be 1500 hp and a straight line rocket leading to Penske's cars missing the race the next year. Wee done.
