IndyCals did the Buick for the 1/25 AMT 88 Lola. Kuzlynn is doing the Reynard engines. More info on ordering here:

These engines are actually prototypes from Revell. Ed Sexton never got them into production but thankfully they were handed off to aftermarket vendors to copy.

I loved this era in CART racing! Used to watch the Long Beach Grand Prix back when I was on University, cars were very cool. I built this car for Zanardi years back. Nice kit, and I am looking forward to seeing yours come together.
Cheers,
Chris

As usual my progress is slow....at least I am consistent!!! So paint has been happening, I went from a grey primer to a white and then finally managed to get colour done. I have used Tamiya TS8 Italian Red and hope the yellow lighting bolts jump out from it. I am thinking of using the yellow decal for the roll hoop and then add the lighting bolts and then cover it up with 2K, after that apply the rest of the decals.

Excellent paintjob as usual Shayne, looking forward to see it with the yellow lightning bolts on.

My god this is so hard to get time to model with two small boys and one not well so needs plenty of care. I finally got a clear coat on as I was going to do the yellow lightning bolts and then clear but decided to clear first. The decals on this one are a bitch so it may never see the light of day.
