Yesterday night I received my wife's gift and the missing switch from Lars to be able to run the novak combo. 

Well, not exactly the mail man brought it, instead i collected it myself. Found it on our local Craiglist /Kleinanzeigen. He wanted 15euro, i could bring him down to 10euro since the model was already started and is quite old. The manual is in a nice vintage yellow instead of white paper.
Will see tomorrow if the axles of the 1/14 D90 i still have, where the electroni9c is broken, will fit into the model. Will try to make it rc over winter.

 

Nice big revell lem.

thx

Looks like me and Lem are thinking alike lately!!
Just got this 240Z model this afternoon and can't wait to get it underway. After the wrecker of course. Box is a bit crumpled but the model is pristine and it is the original release. 

Awesome ! I have the safari one and it was a badass built. I follow each one with a descent price on the bay.

Cool, Datsun 240z is a great choice.

Thanks guys, my only dilemma is stock passenger car or racer............... 

Stock. And buy another for a racer or the rallye one😁
 

I've now taken a closer look at the kit and I'm really shocked. I built a few Revell models as a teenager, but this is a completely different story. Firstly, I assumed that the body and floor assembly were separate, but as you can see in the pictures that's not really the case. The fact that the wing door on the left is quite warped is probably due to the age of the kit, but the imprecise fit of the body with the lower half is a disgrace. Things get even worse when the interior, which is of course previously placed on the floor pan, is inside. Unfortunately, the kit is not complete either.... In this respect, I would probably leave the model as a standing model and use it as a template for a 3D model in order to then make a mold for vacuum forming based on the TT-01/02.
