The assembly is straightforward enough to appeal to modellers who enjoy neat builds and period-correct detailing.

Fit, Finish and Display Use

Good part definition and logical instructions deliver a pleasant construction experience. Once painted and detailed, the model serves as a compact, accurate display piece for a classic car lineup.
