Thanks all.
tonym- I used (oddly enough) the Provimi kit. I second what Michael said regarding the difference between the manufacturers.
Sorry Michael, it's curbside.

Nice work Greg, excellent finish on the paint and gold on black is a winner in my eyes.
Re: Provimi Veal Lola T-8800
Great model, great build and great subject! Just one question, when I look at the pic of the real car (in the first post) there is a decal in front of the cockpit/high on the nose (Goodyear?). Wasn't it present on raceday or didn't it came on your sheet?

Re: Provimi Veal Lola T-8800
You're looking at a qualifying shot - the car literally changed every day of the month right up until race day (I worked with a crew member on that car to develop the sheet - every photo was different depending on what day it was taken). There's a very good chance that the small logo is not on the sheet because it wasn't there on race day, which is what my sheet is based on (I'm at work and can't check right now) - if you go to the link I posted you will see differences on the engine cover from the qualifying configuration.feelgood wrote:Great model, great build and great subject!

Thank you for answering, Michael! You are absolutely right, as usual...
Re: Provimi Veal Lola T-8800
Looks great! I wish I would have read this thread before I built mine.
It was the black and gold that made me want to build it. Thanks, Michael, for these decals.
