Standard build, with just a few detailing and corrections. Pretty much an OOB job.
As soon as I saw it in the shop I knew I had to buy it .. and build it asap. In fact it didn't even went to the stash ... it went from the shop right to my workbench.
The kit is rather basic in some aspects , all these items are missing :
fuel tank
simplistic fuel filler cap
no clear plastic for the head-lamps
no brake pump
no heating hoses
no speedo
no handbrake lever
no ashtray
no bonnet straps
Nevertheless the engine is quite detailed, although some tubes and connectors are missing. In fact some tubes are on the sprues, which I guess are for the 2CV kit.
I added just a few things to get it right ,but not much more.
I can stand with all that.
In the end it took much more time to finish that I'd expected. Rather please with the result though.
