1/32 F355 Challenge refinish and detail...

[RC45]

My first of 2 attempts at super-detailing/refinishing a model car in about 12 years.

Also my first frey into 1/32 (used to do 1/24 exclusively).

F355 Challenge
I picked up these 2 rather "rough diamond Ferrari F355 lot cars. There are very few Ferrari slot cars available in 1/32 scale.

The cars came in a rather toy-like red plastic finish, with no details. I made up some decals, and scavanged some etched parts and used my parts-bin to do this rushed-job at detailing the first one.

I decided to try for a look as if the car was a factory F335 GT rather than just a Challenge car.

As it is a road car, what other license plate was there for me to use... but Jabba's... ;)

HAHAHA that's superb :D and LOL at the license plate!!!
