    New build with some extra detailing to get it exactly like the real thing.
    It's a Lexan body so I had to cut out the holes where the custom made exhaust is placed.
    The model doesn't have mirrors so these are also hand made.
    More details: marker lights, head lights (printed), home made wing stay for the the kit's stay is way too high.
    I did some research on the cockpit and driver (Johnny Herbert) which took an awfull lot of time watching YouTube.
    The problem here was, there are not a lot of pics on the net...
    Second, the cockpit set (which is almost impossible to find these days) doesn't come with correct decals so I had to paint it all by hand.
    The gauges and switches are custom made and printed on adhesive paper.
    The carbon look is a new thing I tried to immitate, looks quite good, doesn't it?
    Anyway, enjoy!
