justin HartThanks JV. I saw the 1/12 scale "street custom" at hobbytown a couple months ago and laughed when I saw the engine bay had the triple side draft webers, and an oil catch can, and looked a little bit like my 1/24th build. Not that my build had anything to do with it, of course, I just found it funny that I went in a similar direction on my custom without knowing anything about the 1/12 kit.

JvI got the 1/12 tamiya kit
I was a bit disappointed whed it after getting the 1/24 kit first
The 1/12 kit is an older mold and the 1/24 is a new tool kit
Whed many new ideas in the kit
I will still recommend the 1/12 kit
And would still buy another one
