I have to agree to the others. A great build and good photographing. I have to study the pictures and hope that they will inspire me to restart on my "sleeping black beauty's".
Isn't there the victory sticker for Germany missing on the rear wing though?

Hello, mates, and really thank you for your feedback. I enjoy this built and is a nice way to pay tribute to Super Swede.

No, just the clear coat and a little wax to clean for fingerprints.
Usually, I polish my models like crazy, but this time I try a more authentic than showroom look. Still not decide what is better.

Maybe, really don't know. I look at it.

Thanks again
