That is looking really great. I love this type of shot of the late 80s / early 90s cars with all the bodywork and wings off, because you can see the simplicity and tight dimensions of the real structure that actually makes up the car. The Ferrari and McLaren of this era have carbon tubs that still have a lot of almost flat panels since the bodywork covered up everything with other curves and surfaces, which is a completely different look to the later cars where the tub itself was the bodywork (Newey's genius on the later Leyton House cars).

Awesome work on the build!

Fsimus, You did a real nice job on this kit. In your guestimation, what percentage of the Tamiya kit is used
in the construction of your 643...and is there any duplication of parts?

Thanx, Querque
