thanks west for your input... hehehe, actually i am blind... (clinically that is... -4.00 in both eyes with astigmatism)... after the project man i just had to give those eyes a rest...

guess, it was basically patience, and having the will to have it done, that kept me going... hardly leave things unfinished once i get them started... unfortunately it took quite some time for me to have it done... lot's of other stuff to do... like work, hehehe....

has mclaren launched their latest f-1 yet?

Lookin' good. I'd vote for the Square CLK rims, just because they look more like the actual car's, but the Square 6-spokes look real good too.

Looks too good to scuff up on track. Are you brave enough to race with that body?

Curious, after all this time, do you still have this? I actually don't hold on to most of the stuff I do. There are a couple that I wish I had kept but it's probably for the best that I don't given my lack of space to display/store them.

Hi arch, surprisingly after all this time, yes i still have it...

Most of my involvement in miniz is now relegated to collecting a body here and there... and in spite of its scale, it is becoming harder to find the "space" to display or store them...

I have the same problem, a closet of plastic bins with various collections. Every so often I thin out my collections as it's easy to hold on to everything but hard to appreciate it when it's relegated to storage. I really only collect limited release autoscales and those I use for racing these days. Most of my customs collection has found homes elsewhere or beaten up on the track.

Its nice to revisit projects like this in which clear skill was employed to tailor the decals to the body, no easy feat with graphics as busy as that.

Square really did make the most beautiful wheels.

When you posted the pic of this car in the other thread, I thought it was the ASC. Looks so good.

Yeah, I wish we still had several styles of nice alloy wheels to choose from. I missed out on that. The r246 wheels look nice, but more variety than silver vs bronze would be welcome.

Herman, I know this is an old project, but you did a beautiful job! This body is stunning.
