Well the car is finally finished. Got the center column adjusted for the driver so its less like a schoolbus, and had the interior gone through. New carpet, dash vinyl, rear seat, rear deck, new leather boots for the shifter and ebrake.
Car will be for sale after I check the clutch and chain for its new owners.
1/40 in the world.
Its number #36
Interior:
Matched french stiching
Also added another radiator to keep temps below 170 or so. Max temp for the R1 motor is 230 or so.
