Thanks Rod ! Finished the Chassis tonight ! I really wonder why there are so few racer/track pics of it in old magazines etc... it was at least quite popular in europe.

They are stickers that are somewhat reinforced compared to the yokomo wheel discs. They can also be removed and again be reattached a few times.

For semi-transparent wings i use tamiya spray cans in "flat clear".
