I bought this kit off my partners dad who had bought it online from America, and had took a couple of bits out of it for another model - the back of the alloys which connect the wheels to the chassis.
I found most of it fixed together quite nicely and easily, but there were several mistakes in the instructions which made it quite tricky in parts. You could follow one of three methods to make the model 1) Stock, 2) Custom and 3) Drag. I went for the custom method, and also used some of the spare parts out of the kit to put extra additions onto the car (such as high beam lights etc).
The mistakes in the instructions were that it would state a certain part number, and the number would be different on the sprue which at first caused quite some confusion! Also, some bits (such as parts of the engine), just would not fit together and needed quite a bit of scratching and modifying.
Anyway, here are the pictures of what I've completed so far, I still need to add the decals and also try to fit the wheels somehow! (If anyone has any ideas how I can fix them to the chassis it would be appreciated!)
