Thanks mate. Started a red version today. And the blown Vette project has paint now. Body smoothed and given a good tidy up. So far so good!

I have seen a white one with 2 blue stripes but it was the other D-type without the big fin and the full windscreen. Did look very nice!

I haven't got the decals for the red one. Would like racing numbers on both sides of the fin and a bigger one on the bonnet!

Tamiya spray can paint. Darren was good enough to track some down for me! Had to scribe all the lines on the body to keep the detail.
