Decals from the sparebox, with the racenumbers from an very old Jouef slotrace car. Amazingly they still worked fine.

The new grille was made from stailess steel mesh, which I found in a craft shop. With help of a template I created the right shape to fit. Now when is that next track day 🙂

Really nicely done! I have four of the Gunze Triumph kits on the shelf of doom - one day I'll get them done!

Album info

Building a Triumph TR3 as a trackday or clubracer. So road legal but with some circuit adjustments. The boxart shows the TR2 model, but due to an error there is a TR3 body in the box. Bought this kit very cheap for this reason, so makes an exellent project kit.
