Nigel Mansell's Newman Haas Lola - 1/20 Tamiya
Built this for a friend of mine. 1/20th Tamiya snap-tite kit from the mid 90's. Had to get replacement decals from IndyCals, which turned out great!
Has a few "uh-oh's", but why wouldn't it - I built it. I'm sure you won't have to look too close to see one of the bigger mistakes, but eh, doesn't ruin it...
Had a good time building and thought it turned out decent.
Thanks for looking in!!

Nice work.
I also built this kit recently and had some concerns about the snap-loc connections vs glue before I started. Those concerns were totally misplaced however, the kit comes together really quite well, makes me wonder why Tamiya only used this method rarely.

Beautiful car ! well done!
Re: Nigel Mansell's Newman Haas Lola - 1/20 Tamiya
Does anyone make an aftermarket engine for this? Nice kit, built a couple in the 1990s. A friend was a Mario nut and I had Mansell Mania bad. Being from Indy, that first 500 of his is a happy memory.
