This build is going to be nearly all Tamiya-sourced. Mainly the Alfa 155 touring car and the Alfa GTV, with a few Ford Focus WRC parts for good measure. Originally, I was thinking about making it a Pike's Peak racer, but I've settled on a GT road racer now. The Alfa GTV-R

Hey Scurvy, have you thought about a rear diffuser? I think it looks a bit odd with the ground effects on the front and sides and not having anything at the back. Apart from that it looks sweet! great looking little racer! ;D

hows the blue 72 impala coming along ?? Hey Bad Seed It's a 73 I stopped because I ran out of Krylon textured suede paint for the Interior...........went to hobby lobby just to find out it's discontinued. ( Now What ). I got the rims ready and polished it out. I also put photo etch emblem parts. I'll take a few pics later this evening. Not only that ......I sliced my index finger, right on the joint underneath and it got infected....It's going to be a while until it heals, but I can paint different thing right now. LOL oneyed bozo P.s. now I'm one handed too. LOL

wassa defuser? anything like a defibber? It's the piece the diffuses the air as it passe under the car helping it grip the road more, sort of like a spoiler on the bottom of the car
