Wow, Bodo,

those outside shots look like the Rene Staud pictures from 1987/88 of the F40. Perfect. This interior shots not so much - no F40 was ever built that well :D
You've done an incredible job on a my favourite car. And I didn't even know the racing version existed as a kit, let alone as a 1/8. Just a bit sad to see that you had to rework almost every part as those subscription type kits are usually in the +800€ class, so not exactly cheap as such.
Cheers,
Roman

Hi Roman,
thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately these quite expensive kits look very toylike out of the box. But by reworking them you at least get a unique model.😃

Beautiful! Actually makes me a wee bit angry that this kit was not more widely available.
